Next version?


Gentlemen,

I've been using Slack for a bit, I've happily run 10.0, 10.1, 10.2.
Does anyone know when Pat will release the next version? I think I've run most distros, but, I always come back to Slack.
I've got 10.2 running on my main machine and love it.

It usually takes 7-9 months. But only PV knows, and I guess that he releases a new version when he feels that it is ready. The last version was released in September 2005. You can do the math .

Anyway, it is best to take a subscription. Then you'll have no need to worry about new versions . And it helps Pat to put food on the table.

Well-said. Pat does need to eat too. I've downloaded some of my past versions. I really should support my favourite distro, a boxed set isn't that expensive.
