Age Verification 'Laws' for Slackware-Based Distros

[brocashelm]

Hi, it's now public knowledge that Patrick Volkerding has shot down the age verification nonsense that's been getting a lot of attention in not just GNU/Linux, but FLOSS (e.g. OpenBSD, Haiku) in general. Does this automatically apply to downstream distros like Salix and Slackel? If not, could it be confirmed by the main developers where their stances are on this sort of thing? It's definitely an important subject. The only way to win is to not comply.

Thanks in advance.
