Mac OS X Apple, which last week asked that developers provide feedback on their experiences using pre-released builds of Mac OS Leopard, has followed up by seeding a significant stability update to the next-generation system software. The latest seed, labeled Mac OS X Leopard 9A500n, arrived via Leopard's Software Update mechanism as a 'recommended' update for all developers running Mac OS X Leopard build 9A499.

I hope they don't release it too early - having had bad experiences in the past with previous MacOS X releases. Lets home that with the rapid increase in marketshare, Apple takes on the responsibility for delivering a quality product very seriously.

I personally have never had a problem with osx being unstable nor 'unfinished' (unless you count 10.0 but it wasn't DEFAULT for a fair while after)

Yeah, I've found OSX 0.1 releases to be solid, not counting 10.0. (I can't speak for 10.4, since I'm still running 10.3.) But it could be that the jump from 10.4 to 10.5 is more significant than previous jumps, so maybe there will be more problems than with previous jumps. We'll see.
