Tux Radar 'gets' Slack...
No amazing insights in the article (atleast for the already enlightened), but it's nice to see that, finally, a reviewer of Slackware, actually 'gets it'.

Hi,
Not bad! A little dry but a good reference for new users. |
A good article.
|
Is it true that Slackware is a one man project? It is too hard to believe it. I cannot recall the details, but I have a feeling that I have ran over posts on Linux Questions where the author was considered to be a "Slackware developer". The article suggests there are none.
Can anybody comment on the organizational side of Slackware development? |

Good read.

Very good article :)
|
Finally a reviewer that doesn't criticize slackware isn't exactly like ubuntu
|
Yep, it would seem the author does indeed "get it".
|
I like that article too - think it first appeared in linux format, by Mike Saunders iirc.

Slackware made frontpage on Digg with this article some days ago.
