Essa not�cia � verdade????
Sem o Patrick essa distribui��o vai morrer... Um monte de gente vai
querer focar metendo o bedelho, colocando iprout2, depend�ncia,
instalador gr�fico etc...
Pra mim seria o fim....

Parece mentira, mas � verdade nosso querido Patrick Volkerding se
retira do desenvolvimento do Slackware. Veja noticia na integra.
In a press statement today Founder and sole developer of the Slackware
Linux operating system "Patrick Volkerding", announced his retirement.
"Volkerding" states that the next release of Slackware (codenamed
"Porch swing") will in fact be the last. Unfortunately the highly
anticipated Linux 2.6 kernel based release, previously codenamed
"Terrapin station" has been cancelled. When we asked "Patrick" why he
was giving up he replied:
In these days of flashy installers and dependancy checking, nobody
seems to want a simple reliable system that just works..." "I Need A
Miracle!" or perhaps some "Young Blood" to take over this
"Masterpiece" but I still feel "She Belongs To Me". "Even so" "Me & My
Uncle" will be "Playin' In The Band"...
Yes, it seems that "Volkerding" is taking up a career in music, and is
about to start touring with a band called "Banjo Bob and the X-men".
Apparently this is a 6 piece banjo band that wear spandex pyjamas and
do Greatful Dead covers.
Meanwhile the future of Slackware may be left out in "The Cold Rain
And Snow".
