Slackware 12.2 is released!  As always, thanks to Pat and the crew for 
  turning out another in the series of "best Slackware release ever."
  There are a few things that wouldn't build for us, for whatever reason, 
  on Slackware 12.2, so those things are noted as removed from our repo.
  We're going to leave the submission form closed for a few more days to 
  take a much needed and deserved (IOHO) break and to give us time to focus
  on any needed bugfixes, but we'll open in up soon for new submissions and
  to catch any updates we might have missed for compile errors.
  We'd like to offer a huge "thank you" to the Slackware user community and
  especially our script maintainers; the response we received to our request
  for testing stuff on -current was awesome, and it really made our job much
  easier this time around.  With all that said, thanks again to everyone who's
  helped to make both Slackware and SlackBuilds.org successful; enjoy the new
  Slackware release and SlackBuilds.org repository.  --the SBo team

  known homepage for this any more.  --rworkman
audio/gimmix: Removed - this won't compile on 12.2, and the newer versions
  require dependencies that we don't have in the repo yet, so we'll wait for

  ready) :)  --rworkman
