<title>Why A New Slackware Book?</title>

<para>
Slackware Linux may be one of the oldest surviving Linux distributions 
but it's still regularly updated and includes the latest releases of
many of the most popular free software programs.  While Slackware does 
aim to maintain its traditional UNIX roots and values, there is no 
escaping "progress".  Subsystems change, window managers come and go and 
new ways are devised to manage the complexities of a modern operating
system.
While we do resist change for change's sake, it's inevitable that as 
things evolve documentation becomes stale &mdash; books are no exception.
