Slackware turns 25

Slackware Linux is the world's oldest surviving Linux distribution, well known for its stability and conservative approach to adopting new technologies. The Slackware project turns 25 years old this month (Slackware Linux 1.00 was released on July 16, 1993). Though it has been about two years since the last stable version of Slackware was published, work continues in the project's "Current" branch. Happy 25th anniversary, Slackware!
