Apple Seeds OS X Snow Leopard Build 10A411 to Developers
Close on the heels of the iPhone OS 3.1 Beta 2 developer release today, Apple has also seeded OS X Snow Leopard Build 10A411 to registered developers. The new seed comes just five days after the release of Build 10A402.
The new update weighs in at about 750 MB, considerably smaller than last week's 1.3 GB update. Specific changes in the latest build have not yet been revealed.

It is very interesting to see Apple seeding all the new builds via software updates. I don't think they done that before, not that I am complaining. I am happy and it also feels like they are ramping up the development of 10.6 considering that they are almost done with 10.5.8. We could be seeing updates coming every week.

How come all the updates are so big? The last one was 1.3GB and seemed to introduce only a few minor cosmetic changes.

Wow, that was fast. Any visual changes? (Marble, anyone?)
Heres hoping, i am a fan of the new style dock menus, for some reason they seem way more responsive also (usually if i accidentally click an application + quickly right click it to force quit i have to wait a few seconds for the menu to pop up, it seems pretty much instantaneous now).
As a side note, is spelling auto correction system wide, or planned to be, as it doesnt seem to have an effect within safari?

Yeah I reckon the same - 1.3GB was pretty huge for what has been found out that it changed. Maybe this one will make 'sort' in stacks work and stop Mail.app crashing with Exchange.
Maybe it will stop colour calibrations resetting often on wake from sleep, but that has been a problem since 10.5.0 so then again, maybe not.

I believe it was a new kernel and under-the-hood changes.

I doubt we will see anything that has to do with any UI changes at least until the next update.
