I just looked and didn't see a change on the official site. So where did you see it?

However, in the world of news, Friday is always chosen when you don't want something to get a lot of attention. So big news stories always get the most publicity on Mondays. And the release of Slackware-13 would definitely qualify as a big news story in the Linux community, if for no other reason than the version of it's release.

Reread post #245. Might be too subtle for you?

Quit it, you keep making me check. However, I suspect it will be out soon, anytime this or next month.

I've been reading this thread so much that my wind turbine can't keep up with the electricity I'm using. I better go and plant some more trees to make up for the increased carbon levels.

Going to the nuthouse might be a reprieve from the dull of life itself. Bad enough I live in the twilight zone. My digital camera just stopped working without any explanation. Then it came on again, briefly. So I checked a pair of rechargeable batteries, and now it's not working again. I get tired of little surprises like that. So either Slackware-13 comes soon, or go ahead and send me to the nuthouse. The gremlins are already my company...
