It seems to have stopped updating since Jan 9.
Does anyone know anything about this?

I have no problems with zypper dup in slowroll - It has updated today.
Did you do this to fix bad repos from this webpage - I had to to get slowroll to update?

Same issue here. Tried re-adding the repos, but still the same result.
@pkikex and @WolreChris Welcome to openSUSE.
I received some Slowroll updates two days ago and a new kernel-longterm package yesterday, but kernel-longterm originates from a different repository. I don’t know where the January 9 date comes from.
Weird, which repos are you using? I haven’t been getting any updates for over a week. When going to the updates repo ( /update/slowroll/repo/oss - openSUSE Download ) you can see that it hasn’t been changed since January 9. The base oss repo hasn’t been changed since December.
I’m using the repos listed on openSUSE:Slowroll - openSUSE Wiki. This page also has information on Slowroll updates.
If you’re interested in trying out the Slowroll LTS kernel, see this thread.
No (security) updates for almost 2 weeks, and what’s even worse, no announcement about it on the Slowroll website or Factory mailing list.
I am back to Tumbleweed for now.
Posted two days ago:
From my side there is no misunderstanding. I am an experienced Tumbleweed user and also part of the target group of Slowroll, because I would like to have less frequent updates.
Being aware of its Beta stage at this time, it is expected and perfectly ok for me that Slowroll has bugs, but I think it is not ok to stop publishing updates without advertising the users.
It is an experimental distribution, not a beta.
If you are a experienced Tumbleweed user, you could step up and help the only maintainer of Slowroll to make the experimental distribution a stable one…
Given the fact that Bernhard wrote scripts to monitor 16k factory packages, to make Slowroll possible, should be enough to give you an impression what he is doing…
An experienced user is not a developer. As such I can file bug reports, and I have done so in the past.
I have a lot of respect for what Bernhard is doing and I hope he will find co-developers for Slowroll.
But a short note that updates are (temporarily?) discontinued and users should be aware of potential security issues would have been appropriate.
Received a large update just now (likely, a large monthly update), 228 packages, including new kernel-default and kernel-longterm packages.
Thank you. 
Good news. I think Slowroll is exactly what many Tumbleweed users would prefer and I sincerely hope it will be a success.
Nevertheless I was probably too adventurous to switch my Laptop from Tumbleweed to Slowroll before it is declared stable and I will keep Tumbleweed for now.
