I sadly have to take those words back. Not the best wishes or the appreciation towards PV and his work, of course, but the comment about us slackers being less grumpy than other computer users.
Ever since I moved from lilo to GRUB (I know it's not related, but it all started at that point), Slackware -current has become increasingly unstable for me, and several updates have gone wrong, some of them terribly so.
