Are the official slackbuilds made available?
Hi, on Slackbuilds.org, it says:

Patrick Volkerding, the maintainer of Slackware, uses SlackBuild scripts to compile the official packages, so it makes sense for us to use the same idea for extra applications we want to add.

Is there a repository i can view and download these scripts? I can't find it.
Thanks.

You can find the Slackbuilds (and source, patches, etc.) for all of the Slackware packages in the source/ directory of the file tree on any of the usual mirrors. They are organized in the same way that the packages are (a, ap, etc.).
Edit. Too slow!

You can go to Slackware.com, follow the link to the mirrors, then find the packages for each version arrange in accordance with the sequence in which they are installed from disc.
For example: http://mirrors1.kernel.org/slackware...ackware64/kde/
