Welcome to the Slackware Documentation Project

A start

I've added a basic outline of the philosophy and practical aspects of Slackware that might be new to users of other Linux distributions. Thoughts/ideas/improvements welcome.

Hari, this is an excellent synopsis. I could only find one minor thing that I would like to suggest that you change. In the first paragraph of the Community section you use the terms “well knit”. I believe you may be meaning to use the common English idiom “tightly knit”, meaning a closely and firmly integrated group or thing.

Regards,

~vtel

changed the phrasing. Thank you. — Harishankar 2012/08/24 19:57

Nice article, Harishankar. One minor suggestion. Quote: “(…) scripts for many commonly used software that are not part of the official distribution (…)”. I suggest: “(…) scripts for many commonly used applications and libraries that are not part of the official distribution (…)”. Niki Kovacs Mon Aug 27 18:07:44 CEST 2012
