It's pretty sad, and this just makes no sense to me, but apparently Apple will delay 10.5.2 untill 26th of February as this is the date the rumoured special event will take place...
I hope it's not true, but I'm affraid it is

I don't think Apple would spend so much effort and money on some update announcement. Also, if they're arranging such a special event their message is likely "BOOM! Isn't this great?" and not "Folks, we finally managed to fix our bugs. Come and celebrate with us!"
Don't ya think?
Yes, it's not my idea. AppleInsider (which is a reliable source) came up with this.
I think it makes no sense Apple would delay it untill another 2-3 weeks, but as we all know is Apple pretty unpredictable...

Is there any reason to suspect this?
Why would they delay bug fixes until a promotional event?
Ahum, Mac Rumors mentioned it partly based on the AppleInsider article.
They say, however, the iPhone SDK is most likely to have is own event.
Just my opinion (which turned out to be wrong time after time, but who cares) is MacBook Pro's next Tuesday and 10.5.2 before the MacBook Pro's, so that could be today, tomorrow (unlikely to me), Monday or perhaps Tuesday.
The lack of 9c32 is promising... I think the fact that they might mention 10.5.2 at the promo event doesn't mean they'll necessarily delay release. Have they ever done that?
I don't know. 10.5.2 was apparently supposed to hit the users after the Macworld Keynote.
Mac Rumors for example and some others too. It all turned out to be wrong, 'cause we're still waiting for it, but it's not unusal Apple would have an event and release a major update at the same time.
Given the current state of 10.5.2 it seems unlikely they would wait for another two weeks.
9c31 is the same seed that this MR submission is about, so that's not another new seed.
Wasn't it already seeded the night before?
When looking at the Leopard Developer Center the seed isn't listed, 9C30 is however.
The information is confused. Appleinsider reports build 9C31 was seeded *last night* to developers, the same build number MacRumors posted a couple of days ago.
Here's hoping to see 10.5.2 the light later today, although I wouldn't bet on it.

And additionally it seems you're using one (disproved) rumour to confirm another rumour... the question remains, have they ever used a promo event to showcase a point release? I think the reason that people thought 10.5.2 would come out at macworld was because they thought it was necessary for Macbook Air (or other products like the the rumoured new MBP), and because it seemed overdue. I think the truth is we're all clutching at straws, but if the development on 10.5.2 is more or less finished it seems bizarre to my mind that they would wait 2 weeks to put it on software update, particularly considering it's not primarily about adding new features, but fixing new bugs... If there were new features they wanted to save for some big anouncement, then you'd think they'd have a bug fix update ASAP, and then a feature update when it suited them.
Actually it looks like macrumors posted it *last night* (by my clock, yesterday midnight GMT)
You're comparing apples and oranges here to a degree, because it really is not fair to compare an OS with an automobile. A car doesn't have to be engineered to work with a multitude of different hardware (and third-party software) configurations. For some, the initial release of Leopard had some major bugs. For others, myself included, it was pretty stable when first released.
I am not saying that they couldn't have gotten Leopard to be less buggy before they released it to the masses, but I certainly do not begrudge Apple. They've been quick with updates to fix bugs, and I am pretty confident that 10.5.2 will fix nearly all of current user issues with bugs.
i'm sick of waiting. i really want this update to come out but i also want this update to be good. i'm sick of Safari hanging so much. that's my biggest problem, i love Safari but it keeps hanging. i've been reporting every single one so..
i keep hoping that "today will be the day for 10.5.2" but...nope. :-(

So, you're to blame!! They were getting ready to release the update, but received another of your reports and had to continue debugging!

hahaha. as long as the problems get fixed in a timely manor. today, mac os x crashed completely. i can't take this anymore. i NEED the update. it's getting ridiculous. i should have waited to upgrade to Leopard.
