A developer release of Mac OS X 10.5.7 emerged from Cupertino this week. Apple's team appears to have been hard at work.Key changes included fixes for AirPort wireless networking, synchronisation, graphics, Mail and Time Machine, along with a bunch of security fixes.
It appears that 10.5.7 will cover similar ground, as Apple has reportedly asked developers to look especially at data synchronisation.
Also on the list of changes are AirPort, graphics drivers, Time Machine and more.
There are also reports that a Safari issue involving certain types of cookies will be fixed.
Whether this is the problem that's stopping certain sites that require user logins from working with Safari is not clear, but the problem apparently persists with Safari 4 beta. The owners of such sites typically recommend users to adopt Firefox instead.
Other reports suggest that 10.5.7 will include drivers for hardware components that won't appear in the Mac family until later this year.
So how big is the updater likely to be? And is 10.5.7 the end of the Leopard line? See page 2.
