 > Slackware!! Best and most stable!

Slackware is quite good as a presonal server or workstation, but their release
engineering does suck so much.

IMO they need to embrace the BSD model, which would not be hard to do because
they are very close to it. They could have a team for the core of the
distribution, and then a system for community contributors to submit package
builds in (ie. SlackBuilds.org). And then they ought to pick or create an
official framework for managing these community builds, in order to save people
the effort of wading through sbotools, slackrepo and every other third party
solution people is hacking in in order to solve the current deficencies of the
distribution model.

Still, for all its faults it is one of the few Linux distributions I would pick
to run a serious personal project on.
