Hi all!

Sorry for the radio silence lately, was certainly not intentional. Between 
being sick for a couple weeks and stress at work it just wasn't a very great 
start into the year :(

I have updated slackbuilds for -current, but haven't come around to testing 
them yet. There are some issues with virtualbox-addons (I can't get anything 
newer than 7.0.10 to compile), and while that isn't a deal breaker per se, 
it's enough for me to not push anything I haven't tested myself.

Once I have the updates in my -current repo, I'll look into updates for -
stable, but realistically, that's still a couple weeks away. Sorry about that!

Grs,
Heinz
