Slackware 12.2 Rc1 Released

[hitest]

Maybe there will be a new version of Slackware in time for Christmas.

While there are still some docs that need updating and probably a few more

tweaks and updates here and there, everything is mostly in place for the next

stable release, Slackware 12.2. The versions of major components like X and

the kernel can be considered frozen. Anything major that we haven't done yet

will probably wait for the release after this next one. As Slackware 12.2 is

only a 0.1 version bump, we're trying to focus on making it better without

causing instability or losing compatibility with Slackware 12.1 wherever

possible. Invasive changes like the new X (that will require changes to

xorg.conf) and merging KDE4 should probably wait for Slackware 13.0.

We will call this batch Slackware 12.2 release candidate one. :-)
