Apple seeds another build of 10.6.3 to devs

by Michael Grothaus Feb 18th 2010 at 9:30PM

Apple seeded another build of OS X 10.6.3 today. This latest build number is 10D558. This is just nine days after Apple seeded build 10D552. iPhoneinCanada is reporting that the current build focuses on Apple Filing Protocol, AirPort, Graphics Drivers, and QuickTime, as well as the following:
  • Performance improvements for 64-bit Logic
  • Addresses compatibility issues with OpenGL-based applications
  • Includes changes to QuickTime X that increase reliability and enhance security
  • Improves printing reliability and compatibility with 3rd party printers
  • Addresses issues that cause background message colors to display incorrectly in Mail
  • Issues that caused machines using BTMM and Bonjour Sleep Proxy to wake unexpectedly
  • Issues with recurring events in iCal when connected to Exchange servers
This is the fifth build of 10.6.3 Apple has released since January. While no time frame for release is ever given, generally the closer in time the builds come to one another, the better likelihood that a release is imminent.

Not sure how to put this without sounding like a PeTA activist. But can't you use a picture of a Snow Leopard out in the wild somewhere, something a little more friendly?
This pictures makes me think of animal testing rather then an OS.

I thought BBMM meant bluetooth magic mouse...but I hope they fix bluetooth issues too. I've been noticing that my Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse has been waking up the Mac before.

And of course, all Mail plugins will have to be updated to work with the new version. Consider that before updating if you love your plugins!

< sarcasm > I'm sure that all of your readers know that BTMM is Back To My Mac - a feature that's useless without MobileMe, which has been wildly successful < / >
