Apple Fixes Panther to Tiger Update Flaw?
I've been asking Apple for a couple of months to let me talk to engineers or product managers about the problem I wrote about in two issues of TidBITS: Adding Tiger's AirPort Preferred Network List and Tiger Still Resists Showing Preferred Networks.
The reason they resisted is apparently because they fixed the problem in the very latest AirPort Update for Tiger, released Nov. 2. A similar update was added for Panther (10.3.3 and later) on Nov. 8.
I've already emailed one of the folks who had Panther-to-Tiger upgrade problems with AirPort and this patch fixed it; I'm waiting to hear from the rest.
If you've had a problem as described in the two TidBITS article and this update fixes it (or doesn't), please email me.
