Slackintosh 10.2-final is released!
Upgrading from 10.1 to 10.2 is recommended:
10.1 is somewhat broken (gcc --static doesn't work) and
was something like a proof-of-concept ;-)
10.2 should be pretty stable.
Bootable ISO-Images:

Security:
====================
Slackintosh 10.2 contains all security-fixes for Slackware 10.2
up to SSA:2005-286-01 (OpenSSL)
Fixes for 10.1 are provided until 10.3/11 is released
Upgrading from 10.1:
====================
Upgrading Slackintosh 10.1 to 10.2 works the same as
upgrading Slackware. So you can follow Pat's instructions:
http://slackware.at/data/slackware-10.2/UPGRADE.TXT
Using Slapt-Get may also work:
1) Install
http://workaround.ch/pub/slackintosh/10.1/EXTRA/slapt-get-0.9.10d-powerpc-1.tgz
on your 10.1 system
2) run
# slapt-get --update
# slapt-get --upgrade
.. to get an up-to-date 10.1 system
3) change /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc
-> Replace 10.1 with 10.2
4) run
# slapt-get --update
# slapt-get --dist-upgrade
(add --no-md5 if it complains about gtk+2..)
5) Check if slapt-get replaced/upgraded the glibc
# /lib/libc.so.6 |grep version
=> Version should be 2.3.5
6) You may have to cleanup some old lib-clutter inside /lib
(the old libc may still be there, remove it if you don't need it)
and checkout /etc for *.new files
7) You are now running 10.2 :-)
btw: slapt-get does *not* upgrade
the kernel, you have to do this yourself if you
need a newer kernel
(Don't forget to run 'ybin')
