Or you could offer Steve Emms some help, and contribute your own suggestions.
Quoting:I would say to Steve Emms, "Why have you chosen to omit Slackware-based distributions and focus only on Debian- or Fedora-based distributions?" This inquiring mind wants to know.Is one reason possibly because Slackware-based distros are _considered_ (by Emms?) to be less popular than Debian- and Fedora-based ones, as indicated by the likes of DistroWatch, http://www.distrowatch.com ?? The latter two base-distros are generally rated on DistroWatch higher than Slackware -- in the first dozen HPDs rather in the second dozen or so HPDs. Well? Here is yet another inquiring mind.

Probably. However, the relationship between popularity and quality is seldom a linear one.
