Mac OS X "The next security and maintenance release for Apple's Leopard operating system could arrive sooner than later if the company maintains its current cadence, which has seen two successive pre-release builds land in the hands of developers in just five days. On the heels of the first external test build labeled Mac OS X 10.5.3 build 9D10 and released privately late last week, the Mac maker on Tuesday followed up with build 9D11, which adds nearly 20 more fixes and code corrections, bringing the new total expected with software's release to nearly 100."

Any news about ZFS? I would like to change my MacBook's disk and install Leopard on it, but if it is going to have ZFS soon, I wouldn't like to format again (I know I don't have to, but I want ZFS).

They will not introduce a brand new file system with a minor point release. If they are going to introduce ZFS, it's going to be during the next major upgrade.

You can already have read/write ZFS with the installation of the ZFS package from Macosforge.org.

This replaces the current restricted, read only implementation that's default for Leopard installations.
