as for uninstall, the usual routine for Mac OSX does exist: Drag the
icon to the trash. Pref files, caches etc exist in the proper
locations, as it is for any application on OSX; that is why there is a
Log and Cache folder on the system even before slimserver comes along.
As for why OSX doesn't remove them when you drag an icon off, perhaps
it is incomplete package management, or perhaps the plan is to allow
prefs to stick around should you reinstall later, or simply a general
concensus that little files added by an application are just too hard
to track for the problems that they might cause. The problem on the
slimserver side is that 6.5 is experimental, a fact that has been
stated MANY times. That isn't to excuse the problems, but it certainly
should be taken as "proceed with caution". You download it and you
have to accept that there might be a problem that you'll have to spend
some time on finding an answer. If you take the time to look at the
bug database, you'll notice that the problems of downgrading from 6.5
to 6.3 have been noted and ARE deemed an important thing to check and
work on a more fluid solution. If nothing else, it is out there for
anyone to see before they think of trying 6.5.
Hopefully you will stick around to see your desire come to fruition.
