It was only 1 hour out when I downloaded the iso. I am now giving it a spin.
The network manager problems they were having with the beta are gone, it detects and connects to my wifi like a pro. Latest firefox 45 browser, nice. This is the xfce version I have, comes with
Libre Office, a plus. So far so good, very quick even on my slooow Lenovo Thinkpad L512.

Yup, over the next few weeks you should see the other releases coming out as well. If I remember correctly you also like fluxbox. Take a peak at the "extra" repo....tons of packages built from SlackBuilds.org.
