After all, Slackbuilds are used by developers to create packages and test them before including them in a release. I particularly like Slackbuilds, since you can specify optimizations in the actual script. Also, syncing isn't necessary either because you can just specify version and reexectue the script, which will result in a package of the newer version. I think it'd be the perfect system. I also think Slackware should move the base of the system to a rolling release system, much like FreeBSD, and allow users to sync and update their systems.

Why not voice your suggestions to Patrick?
