Slacko Puppy 7.0 is released in the wild

After 4 years of development (Slacko 6.3.0 - released in November 2015), slacko and slacko64 version 7.0 are released in the wild! Default in slacko-7.0 (32 bits) has grayscale backgrounds and themes, but colored icons for contrast.

Slacko Puppy is built from a "Puppy builder" system called Woof-CE, which can build a Puppy Linux distribution from the binary packages of any other distribution.

Slacko Puppy is built from Slackware-14.2 binary TXZ packages, therefore it has binary compatibility with Slackware and access to Slackware and Salix repositories.
