Well, actually the website http://slackware.uk/ is operated, as
indicated in its web page by Darren 'Tadgy' Austin who kindly mirrors
for free Slackware and projects based on Slackware, including Slint.

I use http://slackware.uk/slint/ as main repository, as I am not allowed
to store publicly available ISO images and such and provide anonymous
FTP access on my shared hosting plan @ http://slint.fr and can't afford
a dedicated hosting plan. 

As an aside, I use http://slint.fr mostly as a wiki.

Which web page, and what update is needed?
I'll do my best if you are kind enough to elaborate.

Don't be afraid to state the obvious: I am not skilled wrt web hosting
and my native language is French, so I could misinterpret information
given.

Best,

Didier Spaier
