Do you have any details about XFS and 2.6.33? I use XFS on all my
machines. May I update to 13.1 without problems?

Now we have a problem.
Slackware is 13.1 and Fedora is 13, but in 6 months, fedora 14 will be
released and slackware won't be the most advanced linux distribution
anymore.
Time for another version bump?

PV says in the FAQ:

(This was about the jump from 4 to 7.)

But regardless of what PV may or may not do, you can build your own
distribution based on Slackware, an call it whatever you want, such
as "Slackworse 15". ;-)
