Richard, If RunRev chooses not to hire extra people to make Apple's preview period sufficient, so be it. It just means that I continue to be very cautious when considering to buy an upgrade or not. Any reasons *you* may come up with to explain why RunRev never seems to be ready when a new version of OSX or XCode is released, is irrelevant to me.
I didn't mean to contact support. I meant to express my worries publicly and no more than that. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com On 9 okt 2012, at 17:38, Richard Gaskin wrote: > Mark Schonewille wrote: > > > Richard, > > > > Apple provides developers with preview releases of Mac OS X > > and XCode.
