Well someone said they are seeing it on their iPhone 5. And if those in here are seeing it?
Sounds like it truly may be a 32bit only thing.
Build Number 14F5075a.
Could be final, like with 10.3, if they removed the 5 and a.

Um I dont believe you quite understand the whole beta process. Typically betas are mainly for developers to test their apps on and rework them for compatibility and such. Once Apple releases to public beta channel is for further testing in various environments and with various apps to get feedback on what they need to work on to hopefully release a better version to the general population. Reporting bugs all get prioritized according to how Apple determines the severity of them. If you are on released or beta and reporting bugs that has no bearing how fast they get addressed. Example they were probably aware that VPN wasn't working correctly in beta 1 but may have been testing other areas of the OS that effected the vpn code. That's the process. Things that work in beta 2 may not work in beta 3 if it were to come out. That doesn't mean they wont merge all the fixes into a final. Just the way it works.
No public beta 2 till now may mean, public release of 10.3.2 coming next week?
It doesn't mean anything one way or another really. Could come out later today or tomorrow or the next day or next week or not even come out for this beta for some reason.
Yes, I'm joking but sometimes you sound like the ambassador of the neutral planet. No offense. We all know that only apple knows what they're going to do, what's the point of this site then?
Well, speculation works essentially in any and every way: someone can speculate that something could mean something or imply something, just as someone can speculate that it doesn't. In this case, someone asked a question based on their speculation, and I responded based on mine.
Yet you're not going to agree that your "realistic" pov means almost never takes any stance on anything?
The discussion part, as you mentioned. At this point it doesn't even have anything to do with the thread, so we'll leave it at that.
FWIW, I created this thread (1) to take pressure off the actual build threads, so we can concentrate there on actual software, not vaporware and (2) to give people a release to talk about hopes/dreams, etc... without getting whacked by others and mods. So, in my eyes, anything here is fair game unless it is repetitive to the point of childishness (and we do have a fair amount of that!).
Long story short: Unless you're an *ss, its pretty much fair game here. But so too are responses bringing a dose of realism. All are welcome!!!!
