Apple Seeds Potential Golden Master Mac OS X 10.6.6 Build 10J537 to Developers
Apple today seeded a new version of Mac OS X 10.6.6, known as Build 10J537, to developers. The update comes four weeks after the initial developer build was seeded to developers even before Mac OS X 10.6.5 saw its public release.
Interestingly, we've been told that the new build is being listed as a golden master version for those accessing it through the Mac App Store developer program. The designation would suggest that Apple is preparing to release this version to the public in the near future. The listing for regular Mac developers not participating in the Mac App Store aspect of the program appears, however, to not carry any mention of it being a golden master build.
Mac OS X 10.6.6 Build 10J537 offers "developer support for fetching and renewing App Store receipts" and the seed notes ask developers to focus their testing efforts on Bonjour, Dock, OpenGL, Printing and Spotlight. The build weighs in at 1000 MB as a combo update.

I hope Apple isn't turning into M$ with a major OS update per week. I liked to use that hyperbole to laugh at Windows users.

I don't think it will get that bad.
Looking at the schedule, it looks like they wanted to get an OS X update out that gels with the iOS 4.2 update last month in time for Christmas break.
As far a product releases goes; iPhone 4, iPad, new iPod's, Mac Air and a bunch of great software is very well done. That is not even mentioning the Beatles and MJ's new stuff on iTunes. This was a banner year.
Also, this OS X release is a few days before the annual Apple Christmas party. I'm sure it will be a good one. Who knows maybe Paul or Ringo will be there to sing. I doubt if they could schedule Paul but Ringo loves to do corporate gigs. Anyone here going?
