DISCLAIMER

I wasn't running Slackware (I didn't even know what linux was at the time) during the 9.1 --> 10.0 jump, so this document was created by scanning the ChangeLog and double-checking with grep usage. If I've missed something important, I'm sorry, but that's the way it goes...  :) --robw810
