Apple begins testing Mac OS...

Apple has already begun testing the v10.5.3 update to Mac OS X Leopard, according to reports. The developer community is said to be experimenting with a "9D10" build, which introduces changes to over two dozen of Leopard's components. AppleInsider sources mention alterations to components such as: Address Book, AppleScript, Back to My Mac, Dashboard, the Dock, DVD Player, Finder, iCal, Mail, Portable Home Directories, Rosetta, Spaces, Spotlight, Time Machine and VoiceOver.

Developer notes are said to list some 75 fixes in the current build alone, among these improvements to iCal alarms and synching, indexing in Spotlight, browsing PDF files within Preview, and the Dock's Stacks feature. More changes are likely to be made as the update progresses, a final release being expected in either April or May.
