Although I'm not sure, how will be the non-GPL licenses for some plugins handled and I prefer 100% GPL packages, I'll try the CL. I use Debian for now and I score very high its commitment with GNU/GPL. This is the way to avoid commercial destruction of GNU and Linux world -keep the GPL. I'll try CL because of proclaimed well-configured environment. But please, You Developement Team, stuck as much as possible with original Slackware and when possible, try to improve existing projects in Slackware (and whole GNU/Linux), and try not to create bunch of totally new CL-only packages. I don't like such movement in Linux world. Every commercial distro is selling something they haven't created, just the installer, configurator and maybe desktop theme is diferent for RedHat, Mandrake, SuSE etc etc. They should better improve one existing hw detector, configurator etc, together, and not create 777 hw detectors, 548 configuration tools, none of them working good enough. They're not improving GNU/Linux. If they worked together on ONE_REALLY_GOOD hw detector and ONE_REALLY_GOOD configuration tool etc, I wouldn't say so, but they don't. Thank You.
