Despite hopes for an imminent release, it appears Mac OS X 10.5.2 is not yet ready for public consumption. Last week, Apple released a couple of seeds with "no known issues", but apparently has continued to work on the latest Leopard release.

Today, Apple provided developers with the 9C27 but the seed notes reportedly references an old build, so the exact changes to today's build are unknown.

Apple released the first Mac OS X 10.5 update (10.5.1) only 3 weeks after Leopard's initial launch. 10.5.2 has been particularly anticipated as it introduces a some interface changes along with the usual bug fixes.

Of note, the just-released MacBook Air ships with a version of Mac OS X 10.5.1.

They love the attention, we are to blame, checking software update all the time.

It's ready, they are just being cruel.

i hope they spend as much time as needed, even a another month if need be to make leopard blow tigers stability out the window. Mind them old powermac G5 ads so much power it will blow you away or something like that. Let them take as much time as it takes and with luck it will be a great build.

newbie:

is it typical for Apple to release updates so quickly/frequently? Or is this more a matter of Leopard being a relatively big update and so requiring some immediate tweaking? Just sort of curious, if this resembles users' past experience with, say, Tiger (which I only got to know for a couple of months or so before Leopard).

But who is "they"? Whoever tells you about 10.5.2 is either in breach of an NDA, or has heard it from someone who is in breach of an NDA, or has read about it on a website that got information from someone who is in breach of an NDA.

I was hoping this would be released tomorrow but it looks like the earliest I can expect this is some time next week. People are experiencing serious bugs with Leopard so I hope they release 10.5.2 by next week.

Suit yourself, I want AirPort fixes NOW. I've already reformatted one machine (my G4 mini) back to Tiger as my wireless internet connect became totally unusable for long transfers. If it doesn't come out soon I'm going to be doing the same with my iBook, since I've had no issues with the mini since Tiger went back on.

I don't care if 10.5.2 is the update to end all updates or not. I just need the fixes to make Leopard usable now. If 10.5.3 is the one that fixes the little annoyances (couldn't care less about the menu bar or stacks) in another few weeks I'd be fine with that. Until they do I consider Leopard a dud for me, at least.
