Anyone asking a question like that would deserve to get flamed. Not in a
million years would I ask that question. It would be "for Slackware
15.0", or perhaps "Slackware-current". No real Slacker would ask such a stupid
thing.

I won't quibble over what "small" and "lot" mean. However many there are,
there are *FAR* more using a release version.
