Volkerding is Slackware's "Benevolent Dictator for Life" (BDFL), and is also known informally as "The Man".[9] Personal lifeVolkerding earned a Bachelor of Science in computer science from Minnesota State University Moorhead in 1993.[10] Volkerding is a Deadhead, and by April 1994 had already attended 75 concerts.[11] Volkerding is a Church of the SubGenius affiliate/member. The use of the word slack in "Slackware" is a homage to J. R. "Bob" Dobbs. About the SubGenius influence on Slackware, Volkerding has stated: "I'll admit that it was SubGenius inspired. In fact, back in the 2.0 through 3.0 days we used to print a dobbshead on each CD."[12] Volkerding is an avid homebrewer and beer lover.[11] Early versions of Slackware would entreat users to send him a bottle of local beer in appreciation for his work. Volkerding was married in 2001 to Andrea and has a daughter Briah Cecilia Volkerding (b. 2005).[1][2][7] IllnessIn 2004, Volkerding announced via mailing list post that he was suffering from Actinomycosis[13], a serious illness requiring multiple rounds of antibiotics and with an uncertain prognosis. This announcement caused a number of tech news outlets to wonder about the future of the Slackware project[14]. As of 2012, both Volkerding and the Slackware project were reported to be in a healthy state again.[15] Slackware LinuxFor a short while, Chris Lumens and others assisted with his work on Slackware. Due to the lack of a continuing revenue stream following the sale of his publisher, Walnut Creek CDROM, to BSDi (which was ultimately sold to Wind River Systems), these people had to be let go.{{Fact|date=July 2014}} For the last several years{{when|date=July 2018}} Volkerding has managed Slackware with the help of many volunteers and testers. AwardsIn 2014, Volkerding received the O'Reilly Open Source Award.[16] Works
