Word is that Slackware -current is going to hit Release Candidate soon (based
on a bunch of packages that have been included recently, including some modern
KDE stuff). If that is the case, we could have Slackware 15 in mid 2021.

I am keeping Slackware on every machine that does not need upgrading, and
migrating everything else to OpenBSD. My problem is what to do if I need to
migrate something specifically to Linux... Devuan could do the trick, but I am
not a fan of Debian and derivatives. Gentoo is just too time consuming to set
up.
