Main idea ?

So what should the main idea behind the "Alcoholix" project be?
We probably want to keep everything we liked about Zenwalk. After all we all went to Zenwalk for a reason.
At the same time we should dump everything we didn't like...
An idea that I had and talked about with a couple of people was to keep it as close to slackware as possible. Basically synchronize 100% with slackware releases and be 100% backwards compatible with it, essentially providing a "plug-in" distribution for slackware. That way we contribute back to slackware and all slackware users can install any package from our repos. That will also probably mean that our first release will be 13.0.
