Still new beta tomorrow with Dev Center down?

[hallex]

I bet Tim Cook is gonna sneeze soon. Maybe we'll see beta 4 then?

Tim Cook is making a phone call to his lover now, Maybe we'll see beta 4 then?😀

Why's that?

...because Devs can download a full and complete copy of Mavericks via the Mac App Store.

Cos with the Mac App Store you can re-download the dev preview where needed, like if something goes wrong or to a new device. You cannot do that with iOS without the IPSW. Also, apple recommends each beta is installed clean as a first option, you cannot do that OTA.

I'm pretty sure between beta 3-4 will be 3 weeks. Beta 1 was released June 10th, expire date was July 24th. Beta was out June 24th, was set to expire August 8th. 3 came out July 8th and expire date is August 29th. If the first two betas are correlated Beta 4 is coming out july 29th. Which is 21 days, aka, 3 weeks from now

I'm beginning to think the above pattern may be correct (barring unforseen issues) and the lack of a Beta 4 release on Monday had nothing to do with the Dev Center.

All iOS 7 Betas so far have released one month prior to the expiry date of the previous Beta.

Beta 3 is set to expire August 29th, so July 29th is probably the scheduled release date.

And if it is not, people will peer into their technical tea leaves and develop another theory.🙄

I think it holds water for the scheduling at least.

Apple have to put some kind of plan in place as to when they are ideally scheduling release of the Beta versions.

The expiry dates match so far.

I did caveat for unforseen issues, as this is a Beta after all, so the schedule will be somewhat fluid.

The one month after expiry method seems to be the way they've chosen to put a target "stake in the ground".

The 2 week periods between betas also matched, until they didn't (although they are still "holding" for OS X Mavericks). ;-)

And we only don't know if the 2 week schedule was valid due to the idiot that hacked the dev center.

Olive Garden is awesome. Besides, everyone goes for their breadsticks!

Breadsticks are from rainbow and they use their own garlic butter.

Oh yeah, they're already made and in a plastic bag too.

Nothing special about them honestly..

And yes I know is because my uncle delivers to them locally here for years now.
