What?!!  You must be confusing me with someone else.
I certainly do have PPP connect.

I use eznet all the time (even with my stock Slackware
install).  As far as my personal experience goes, it
works *better* than chat.

Sez who?  Open-source developers are free to do whatever
they want.  BasicLinux uses an old kernel, old libraries,
old binaries and hooks into an old version of Slackware.
Are you saying I'm _supposed_ to do something different?

Before the release of BL2, it was:
------------------------------
http://www.volny.cz/basiclinux
------------------------------
with a mirror at:
-------------------------------------------------------
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/baslinux
-------------------------------------------------------

Now it is:

Not as far as I am concerned.  The main homepage is BL2
(with link to BL1 for computers unable to run BL2).

There still is.  Just send them to BL2 and I will do the rest.

Really?  My whole site is just a bunch of files.  What else
is there to link to?

No exaggeration.  Just a bunch of files.  Some are zip files,
some are html files.  All of them files.

I don't want you to distribute my files.  I am happy for you
(and others) to link to the homepage, but I do not support
links to specific files.

Name-calling is not helpful.

The first step to co-operation is courtesy.

No way.  Two versions only.  BasicLinux 2.01.
BasicLinux 1.8.  That's it.

Nope.  Two.  Slackware 7.1.  Slackware 3.5.
