Barry's thoughts about Puppy 3 & Puppy 4:
I have tried to clarify the point on my blog that the puppy3 series will continue. I will differentiate them with different names and on my main page where I state the latest version, I'll put both, so there'll be Slappy (or whatever it gets called) v3.02 and Dingo (or whatever) v4.00.
It is good that MU and PuppyRus are using puppy3, it can keep getting developed as long as Slackware 12 remains viable.
We need to emphasise that despite the version number differences these are the latest of each breed. Slappy specialises in Slackware 12 package compatibility, with Gslapt and lots of extra libraries like Tcl/Tk.
Dingo is the latest libraries and packages compiled from source with T2, with a much narrower focus, GTK2 apps only and built for smallness.
From the point of view of hardware detection, startup/shutdown scripts, all the underlying stuff, they will be equivalent.

'I intend this to be the last alpha, next will be the beta. There are a few things that got missed out for this release. For example, I intend to work on the PET package manager, hopefully this will be done for the beta. I think someone mentioned that Pidgin doesn't work properly, so perhaps this needs to be upgraded for the beta also. I am also interested in offering Pmount with 'standard' or 'mut2' underlying engines -- probably for the beta also."

Beta coming soon . . .
"The end result of this work is we want those on analog dialup to the Internet to have the most pleasant experience with Puppy. Of course we can't support all software modems, but we are doing the best we can, and we are trying to automate the detection and setup as much as possible. When Dingo 4.00beta is released, please test!"
