Deepclutch:
As far as managing it, well it just kind of comes back to who's using Slackware as a distribiton in general. Most people using Slackware have pretty decent linux experience and knowledge, so most of us already know what programs we need based on the systems use as well as where to look for new programs. If you're looking for new apps I highly recommend both http://freshmeat.net and http://sourceforge.net.
