Good hello, and welcome to the third and final release candidate for Slackware
15.0. We're 99% frozen at this point and are mostly looking for regression or
other bug reports that might be able to be addressed before this goes stable.
Of course, the management here reserves the right to make exceptions... that
5.15.15 kernel version has a nice ring to it. If your requests didn't make it
into this iteration, perhaps we will revisit them for the next -current cycle.
Some were just a little too late but will more than likely be needed next time
(I'm looking at Didier's grubconfig), while others are just out of scope for
the main tree where I like to abide by YAGNI as much as possible.
Anyway, let's get some testing done and we'll be there soon. Enjoy! :-)
