  • Slackware 15.0 Alpha is nearly there!

    From Richard Falken@1:123/115 to All on Tue Feb 16 05:01:31 2021
    Hello!

    I have posted this somewhere else, so long story short, Slackware 15.0 Alpha is in the changelogs already. Apparently they are trying to make Firefox and Thunderbird to work properly with the new Rust compuler, so they are refraining themselves for calling Slackware-current anything more than "Alpha 1"

    I say we celebrate this with a bourbon and hooker orgy.

    We'll be right over. You're providing the <ahem> refreshments? ;-)

    We are under curfew here, so most refreshments are unavailable. But I am sure we can
    work something out.
