You don't have to. Just don't provide a new dep file with the new version and the renaming will happen "on the fly" in the repository. metagen.sh does that already.
No more ZENBUILDs, it's SLKBUILDs now... No dependency support whatsoever, no more zenver and added support for tgz, tlz and tbz packages in SLKPKG options (default is txz).
Why not just slkbuild as package and binary name? Based on the model of pkgbuild and according to the filenames it parses (SLKBUILD).
buildslackpkg is a bit long Furthermore I think it's easier to understand for newcomers that the slkbuild tool parses the SLKBUILD file.

You're right.
I'll make the change this afternoon.

I'd say: Same as Zenwalk!
Yes.
Lets just only change the package versioning in slackware fashion. Instead of:
$pkgname-$pkgver-$arch-$zenver.$pkgrel.txz
we use
$pkgname-$pkgver-$arch-$pkgrelxy.txz
where xy are your initials. When we come up with a name, maybe we can put initials for that there instead.

It's ok for me. I've always used this naming scheme for self compiled Slackware packages So my suffix would be "tm".
Changelog:
- v0.1 (June 10, 2009)
* Initial release as slkbuild
* Creates txz packages by default
* Added option for creating tgz, tbz or tlz packages
* If sourcetemplate is not set, an src file will not be created
* Removed all dependency related stuff
* Removed zen-pkgcheck.pl option
* Removed automatic installation of .desktop files that appear in the source array
* Removed zenver variable, package name now is $pkgname-$pkgver-$arch-$pkgrel.txz
* Renamed ZENBUILD to SLKBUILD and buildpkg to slkbuild
Why not keep the 'keepdepfile' feature?
Furthermore I think it's easier to understand for newcomers that the slkbuild tool parses the SLKBUILD file.
