I don't know why my name inherited two "a"'s but I've been called worse ;-)
Good work and I'll keep merging in your build script patches as and when I get to them; but please note that this is not an official port - only Patrick can decide what receives the "Slackware" label.

Stuarta Wintera, sounds like a GoT character. Suits you, Ser! Probably a good thing your name isn't Paul. :P

Is this project endorsed by Stuart Winter or is it like Slamd64 in its time ?
The latter. I like seeing the community developments, but under the 'Slackware' name, I cannot endorse anything other than my own work.
Slackware ARM was previously called 'ARMedslack' for many years because it was not an official port.
Without attempting to be Patrick's mouth piece, just as no other Linux distribution or company would permit it, I know that he does not tend to favorably respond to his own brand name being used without his approval.
The project needs a new name until such a time that Patrick endorses it.

originally planned to make changes to the current project Stuart Winter, but then decided to take the original scripts and, if necessary, make patches to them
