Apple Asking For Developer Feedback On Leopard 9A499
Apple mailed out a survey link for ADC developers asking for feedback on the current Leopard seed (9A499).
The survey is actually asking developers for a comparison between Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and the shipping version of Mac OS X Tiger (10.4):
This survey is intended to allow you to compare your experiences using Mac OS X Leopard Build 9A499 and a shipping version of Mac OS X Tiger (10.4.x). Please rate all the areas that you have used in 9A499.
The survey provides comparison choices of
- Much Worse
- Somewhat worse
- About the same
- Somewhat better
- Much better
on a wide range of Mac OS X tools and features. The described areas of comparison are broken down into Mail & Web, Graphics & Media, Setup & Mobility, Desktop & Interface, Productivity & Communication, and Sharing & Devices.
You must be an ADC developer to participate in the survey (verified by email).
Apple is expected to ship the final version of Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) in October.
