[Slackbuilds-users] Why are ORBit2 and GConf available on SBo?

[Klaatu]

With regards to htop, yes it does look like it is in the /ap package set in -
current (according to PACKAGES.txt file in 
ftp://elektroni.phys.tut.fi/slackware-current/slackware) 

However, Slackbuilds.org's charter (at least as far as I understand) is to 
maintain packages for the stable release of Slackware, so htop being in 
Slackbuilds's 13.37 collection does make sense for those people who don't 
follow -current.
