In less than a week from the last developer seed, Apple has released another version of Mac OS X 10.5.1 to developers for testing.
The latest 10.5.1 seed (9B16) has "no known issues" but lists only a few updates since the previous build. These include updating applications even if moved out of /Applications, moving files to a different directory in Finder bug fix, and DNS resolution fixes.
