Regular slots allow for multiple versions of a package to coexist, right? Using context and knowledge of English, a subslot tells me that it'd be a second level of slotting, which I see limited use for. It'd be most useful for development languages that have multiple subversions.
In short, subslots don't seem to be visible enough for me to give an opinion on them. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJSdRr5AAoJEJUrb08JgYgHlEgH+QF954wvjrHPt15KBVuFHt1Q AOSWYmtZJFEDi/xiIpMi6a36fcyV7NY/G6jUqq7MmcGf/vW4hHOxn25cqYJd4dZB Ausb4TcAp9l86LsMdlVEJ+W4IBBVRgDnylD6TM9nUahSwwt/zQ4LzaLnbOW+V9F6 Rozj9VaXbYR5P4rfMHUK6ojZGpEtirTaaAFmmvuQH0ZkjEZzJVJqKwOxzIwIq1mf 9AUnO9cRJpXHE23xxDJ0YXQ8PZxvPnUBjQFXKj2XPoGm67bljK+3LVC9iPDQ5mLw sL5sKe83GkQK+VtxXv3MvcLi4pExJaKbPVXscsaeDbXElXYvDc6a0X7snjA0YGQ= =ki5a -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
