It's been reported that this update fixes the AD lockout issues lots (including me) are having with our AD accounts locking after waking from sleep or screensaver. Finally! I can hopefully roll this out to all our users now!
Got a tip for us?

Apple Seeds Third Beta of macOS Sierra 10.12.3 to Developers

That is good to hear. Been having problems with my 2015 MBP 13". Actually the developer release for the last couple of months have had numerous issues. Sierra started out pretty good and then went to hell after a couple of updates.
Preview at best. Besides you don't want to install a new file system until after all the early adopters take all the arrows coming their way.

Actually I'm hoping for case sensitivity to remain. That would eliminate compatibility issues with software from the Unix/Linux worlds. Yes it would create some issues but it would force updates to old software.
According to someone who commented in another thread on here, this beta 3 also fixes the majority of the issues that came up since Sierra was released with the revamped PDFKit breaking apps that try to access Preview as a document viewer, or causing Preview to damage/lose OCR data embedded in your existing PDF documents when you use it to edit and re-save them.
Right, I meant case sensitivity shouldn't cause problems with most apps by the time 10.13 comes out.
The direct links are in apple's developer forums if you need them - but if you use them you should follow instructions given there too.
Others just go there to get the links without reading the instructions and then report back that it failed - because they didn't follow the instructions - as if that were my fault - or apple's! And then I have to tell them to read the instructions!
That's something I could expect like something here or on other public forums - but on a developer forum??? I expect better there frankly.
Are you signed up for the developer beta or the public beta? I think so far it has just gone out to developers and Appleseed members. The public beta usually follows a day later.
I'm usually not too excited about point releases, but the current instability of the 2016 MBPs has me waiting for each of these. (That's not to say the machine is constantly crashing or anything, but given the stability I've grown accustomed to since... well, like... the last decade, this is definitely a step backwards.)
Hope this fixes the Key Repeat issue on MBPR 15" where changing the key repeat rate does not have any affect system-wide. You can adjust it from minimum to maximum however any app shows nothing changes when holding down any letter for any amount of time.
Very interested to see what the graphics updates entail. I'd love to see native RX480 support for my hackintosh.
I'm under the impression graphic driver updates has been included in more or less every OS X/macOS 10.x.x update for years.
This is very encouraging....especially for the mac pro 2013.

Can someone post a screen shot? It would be like Christmas for some..Ohh my god!! Hell just froze!!!! This is unbelievable! New AMD drivers.... insane, never thought to see this happen *cries*
Hopefully they give some performance improvements and I wonder which driver version they have implemented with this new beta release.
. Can't open until "next (Christmas) version comes..".
What makes you say this and they say the other?
I've updated but haven't noticed any improvements in Lightroom (which runs incredibly slow on my maxed out 2016 MBP / 460).
Just install Coconut Battery (free) it will let you show time remaining and percentage and current wattage used at the moment. Also, it seems more accurate than the old Time Remaining per Apple.
