I have no idea, but, I think this may be the last of the release candidates (idle speculation). Perhaps 11 will be released this week.

Just read the latest changelogs, cant belive Pat added ktorrent. Ktorrent is like the worst BT client I ever used, he should've added Azureus instead. Could RC4 be last release candidate, we might actually have a new slackware on our hands this week!!!

Yeah :-) I'm doing backups this weekend, so I can start with a clean Slack 11 install next weekend (hopefully). Wonder how long the pre-orders take to be delivered after release... otherwise I'll have to download it anyway :-)
Running Kubuntu at the moment. So I've been waiting for a couple of months now to start over :-)
No matter what I've tried in the past... I always return to slack... So I think I'll stick with it this time :-)

I guess he doesn't expect everyone to install java, and/or the memory requirement is way too high for those old 486's and Pentiums. But wow, RC4...

Waiting here too...I have a box ready and sitting idle without OS for a week now that will be exclusively a slackmyth box.

I wish 11 had come out this weekend so I could use some extra time to configure everything...oh well

Tux,

So.... if he wasn't even planning to do a RC4 I bet that means this is the week we've all been waiting for.

It's only been added in extra/ so it doesn't matter overmuch. It wont be installed as standard.

I smell a conspiracy theory has PV been hiding a secret identity?
