Unless my memory is failing, Debian and Slackware started almost
simultaneously (Slackware slightly earlier). Slackware was usuable for
regular users a lot faster, because it was based on SLS (but having the same
basic problem: one maintainer), whereas Debian started from scratch
(inventing its beautiful packaging system, and developing the concept of
per-package-maintainers).
Both Debian and Slackware were responses to the amount of problems with SLS
1.03 .
Can someone with better memory back me up please?
