Mac OS X 10.6.2 Build 10C519f Seeded to Developers
Just four days after the first developer build of Mac OS X 10.6.2 was seeded through Apple's developer program, a second build termed 10C519f has been pushed to the community for evaluation and testing. The new update, which weighs in at 456.8 MB, brings several new refinements as Apple continues to press forward on the second maintenance update to Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
Apple reportedly notes approximately a dozen areas of change addressed in the new build, on top of the nearly four dozen changes included in the previous build. Apple also lists nearly 150 specific focus areas upon which developers are asked to place their testing efforts. As for outstanding known issues yet to be addressed, Apple apparently addresses four such items, including issues with video corruption, Core Data output, and System Preferences hanging.

Looking forward to this bad boy. If this is nearly 500MB's, definetely will sort out more than 10.6.1 did with it's 79MB patch.
Hoping that the trackpad issue is resolved, Expose offers an option for the "old way" to scale windows, more snappiness since there is a slight sluggish feeling still to Snow Leopard.
QuickTime X update too as part of this..? It's needing something anyway.

Hopefully it resolves my font issues with Office 2008 and Adobe Flash with fonts not appearing in the Font Menus.... placing fonts into the Adobe font folder get the fonts to appear in Photoshop and Illustrator and InDesign.... but no go on Flash and Office 2008....

Does it fix the expose bug where it goes to "show desktop" instead of going back to normal windows? You don't know how much you love expose until it's broken.

More stability is always good, but I'm hungry for something new. It would be nice if one of these maintenance releases introduced a new app or some new UI candy.

Please fix the 4-finger swipe expose bug where if you swipe two ways without taking your hand off the touchpad it bounces instead of returning to normal windows. (I don't know how to describe it better). This happens on my MBP4,1 and a 13" MBP I installed SL on.

I hope they fix the problem with Safari 4 hanging up and crashing all the time. Safari worked flawlessly in 10.6.0, but 10.6.1 f'd it up.
