Apple Seeds First OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 Beta to Developers
Apple today seeded the first build of OS X 10.9.5 to developers, one month after releasing OS X 10.9.4 to the public. The new beta is available through the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store and through the Mac Dev Center. The beta has a build number of 13F7.
OS X 10.9.5 follows new seeds of Safari 7.0.6 and 6.1.6 for Mavericks and Mountain Lion, which were released to developers last night.
It is unclear what improvements the 10.9.5 update will bring to Mavericks, but it is likely to include bug fixes and stability enhancements. Apple is asking developers to focus on USB, USB Smart Cards, Graphics, and Safari.
Along with working on improvements to Mavericks, Apple is also beta testing OS X Yosemite, which is due to be released in the fall. The last Mavericks update, 10.9.4, added several Wi-Fi fixes and improved wake from sleep reliability.

Good luck with that.
My two uMBP and two rMPBs all sometimes either have no wi-fi after sleep or they do not see the majority of SSIDs in the area.
What about Safari 7.1 that was issued to developers?
----------
I agree. Really the only thing of value in Yosemite for me is iCloud Drive and a better Safari. I think Safari 7.1 will bring improvements, but Apple won't update Mavericks with iCloud Drive to try and push Yosemite. I am at a point now were I don't want to try everything new. I just want a stable and reliable system, so even if I want to update to Yosemite I will wait until 10.10.1
P.S: I agree with you, too hard for me to read :D
