wow, threw this into qbittorrent and only four seeds.

for the love of slack.
I think it would be better if each Slackware release had its own thread for the relevant torrents. The title of this thread is "Slackware 14.1 Torrents", yet in the first post there are only torrents for 14.0 (from 2012), and the actual torrents that you want are on page 6 (I know there is an update link there, but still). Sticking every release all in one thread needlessly makes the torrents more difficult to find. I mean Slackware releases don't exactly come out at a lightning rate, so making a new thread for each Slack release is not going to drown the board That said, I will download 14.1 and seed until 14.2 comes out, then I'll move on to that
What happens to the torrent if any of these ISO's is rebuilt from scratch? I assume that all further sharing stops because the source changed and you have to re-create the tracker?

I will have to make new torrents every rebuild. But as long as the torrent is up the download works. I've downloaded the ISO's to my server. I'll edit my posts with the new torrents.
Order the latest version of Slackware Linux on CD-ROM (6 CDs in all), or the whole distribution on a single DVD from The Slackware Store.

Thu Jun 30 20:26:57 UTC 2016 Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released! The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in "interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else who pitched in to help make this release a reality. The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription. Have fun! :-)
