Expect Mac OS X 10.6.3 Today
Softpedia has reason to believe Apple is very close to releasing Mac OS X 10.6.3 to the public in under 12 hours. The most recent builds seeded to developers stand as evidence that development has followed a straight line, with few impediments. To their knowledge, developers see no issues in the focus areas they’ve been assigned, putting the 700+MB update on track for release by the end of the day. Mac OS X version 10.6.3 will be the third incremental update to Apple’s Snow Leopard operating system, delivering maintenance and security fixes.
Earlier this week, Softpedia reported that people familiar with Apple’s Snow Leopard development cycles were telling AppleInsider that a comparison between the latest two beta builds showed very few differences, in what is a clear indication that development was wrapping up. January’s Mac OS X 10.6.3 build 10D538 listed just one known issue – “viewing shared photo albums in Front Row may cause Front Row to crash.” Build 10D548, seeded to developers as February kicked off, had no known issues, and altogether listed very few changes compared with its predecessor.
