In defence, Slackware 4 was most definitely a real release, 5 is uncertain and I believe that 6 was a buggy move to glibc2.0 that few people ever got a copy of, which was abandoned in favour of a move to glibc2.1 for version 7. They were versions, even if not general releases. Of course, Slackware 96 is out there somewhere complicating things ;-) -- | MJR "Everything is planned, from -- crime to leisure time."
