v12 will have it. I don't know if it has been fully integrated. I will
test current after the semester ends. But I have not been a fan of hal
at all from seeing the other distros.

Dropping slack just because of loosing XMMS? Just get the slackbuild
and build it yourself. It's really no different than what you are
doing with gentoo. The reason Pat is probably removing it is probably
because he wants to get rid of gtk1.
