Firefox 13 officially landed in SalixOS a few days ago and nobody wrote an article to say so. The same is true for Slackware and probably a dozen other distros. Funny, nobody wrote articles to announce the fact.

This isn't news. This is the endless Ubuntu hype machine.

Hasn't hit Slackware yet... nothing new since 6/2.

Oh... I thought the SalixOS upgrade was from upstream. My mistake.
