Slackware 13.0 is released!
Yes it's that time again! After many months of development and careful testing, we are proud to announce the release of Slackware version 13.0! We are sure you'll agree that the improvements made in this release more than warrant the major version bump up from the 12.x series. We've done our best to bring the latest technology to Slackware while still maintaining the stability and security that you have come to expect.

We know that many of you have been waiting eagerly for this, and once you try it you'll see it was well worth the wait.
