Correct. Miniconda works with 7.2 and 7.3. Slinky works with those as well 
as 8.0. I don't know when (or if, to be honest)  I'll get around to a 
miniconda release for the 8.x distro.

And my apologies as well. I'll accept my share of the blame Marco. I'm 
quite behind on documentation. And development, and testing, and updating 
reports, and .... ;)

I'll get some updates together for pages I've noted with errors or 
omissions as soon as I can. Life's hectic these days. ;)
