Patrick Volkerding announced today that the Slackware development tree had reached release candidate status: "OK, we're going to call this Slackware 12.1-rc1, though there is still some more minor work to do. Please help test! And if we're missing anything major, please let me know. Thanks." The most recent changelog entry includes a security fix for CUPS and other minor updates. Slackware "current" is based on Linux kernel 2.6.24.4, with glibc 2.7 and GCC 4.2.3; it also includes KDE 3.5.9 as the default desktop, a development build of xorg-server 1.5, Firefox 2.0.0.13, Apache web server 2.2.8 and other popular applications. As always, Slackware release candidates are not provided in the form of installable ISO images, but recent unofficial installation CDs and DVD are available from this mirror. Alternatively, create your own Slackware DVD from the current tree by following these instructions. Happy testing!
