Well there is a woman who lives in my townhome unit that until recently had a different man in her bed (with her 7 year old daughter down the hall) every two months at most. Sounds like something she might be able to perform, but I have to say she couldn't pay me enough.
I've not heard anything I can verify but I'd be surprised if they're not. And by feature frozen I mean major components will not be added. Adding or removing a menu command or button or whatever from any given app does not apply in this case IMO.
I think the next ADC build will be telling as to whether or not a September release is practical. Remember, from the day they go GM they still need 2-3 weeks to get the product into the channel. If they release a killer build Monday, that's less than 15 days from September, and killer or not they'd still have plenty of polish work to do to reach GM status from that branch. Populating the help files, fixing up the remaining icons, etc etc.
If it's a very stable, polished build, we might get lucky and see Panther on September 27 (the last Saturday of the month). Otherwise all bets are off.
Once again, this release reflects extensive engineering efforts since the last seed (7B28), with issued addressed in almost every component of the OS. Here are some components that had the most extensive changes:
Once again, this release reflects extensive engineering efforts since the last seed (7B28), with issued addressed in almost every component of the OS. Here are some components that had the most extensive changes:
Address Book
Airport Admin
AppKit
ATS
Carbon Core
Core Audio
Core Graphics
Finder
Foundation
HIToolBox
JBoss
Kernel
Printing
QuickTime
QuickDraw
WebCore
WebKit
They're working weekends? They must be tired, because JBoss is a part of Server not Client
Edit: And antialiasing of bold fonts are terrible in this build.
1) Any sign of UMASK type funtionality in the Finder?
2) Regarding the interaction between the 'browser' and 'spatial' Finder modes: When using the 'browser' mode (in columns, for example), is it possible to configure the Finder so that double-clicking on on a folder will open that folder in a new spatial Finder mode (toolbar-less) window? Under Jag, setting "Always open folders in a new window" does not behave this way: new windows open with the toolbar (browser style), and clicking on folders in the toolbar opens them in a new window rather than in the same window.
the things id love to see in this version of the finder is well, not have one thing work and one thing fixed, in 7b21 it was no labels, but zip from the finder, and in 7b28 it had labels working and zip archiving from the finder broken, so itd be nice to see both working at their best.
other then that i must say that apple is doing a dynamite job on panther so far, it boots far quicker then jag, has some things in the app launching department, but the new finder is faster and kick ass
I just discovered why I couldn't download the damn updates from ADC. The FTP site won't work with Safari! Here I thought that the site was just overloaded, but my partner told me to try IE this weekend and BAM I got the files. How funny... Oh and I got them just in time for the new build to be released.. sigh.

Look in the Finder. Safari mounts ftp servers in the Finder.
has ftp been fixed in b39? in 21 you mount it and if you wanted to copy files to it it asked you to authenticate, but it still wouldn't let you copy it.

It's flaky, but it does work - restart Safari and then tell Fetch to be the Internet Config helper, and then restart Fetch. I just got all 3 CDs this way. I got a couple of error boxes in Safari that the URL was bad, but that was cured by restarting Safari.
Okay I did the upgrade from b21. This build 39 is very very fast. Menus are a huge improvement from other builds, and that's saying something because they were extremely snappy in the last 2 builds!

Better yet - use an ftp client.
Any ideas?

That's just it, Safari would switch to the finder but never mount the server. Who knows...
