Keyword "normally". There have been plenty of instances of 1PM PDT releases. Heck, there have even been 5PM PDT releases of betas.
Meh no it doesn't. Still technically a beta build. Yes they could drop the 5 and a like they did with 10.3 but that is very, very uncommon. It was still a 5 point jump. If it was a 1-2 point jump then maybe public next week.
It has only happened like 2 times in the history of iOS, thats hundreds of builds over 10 years. Its very, very, very rare.
No, a beta build being a public release. I'm not talking about build increases. I'm talking about beta builds. You said next week will be public, that means a beta build will have to again be made into the public by removing the 5 and a.

Thinking about it. The biggest sign that its not coming next week is the fact that DP and PB weren't released together.
Starting to agree. 7 weeks away from WWDC. Unless its coming next week.
Hey, thought you'd appreciate an update on this.
That post was on 17th January and it's been about 13 weeks since then. In that time we've seen 10 betas.
10 betas / 13 weeks = 0.77 betas per week.
There are about 7 weeks till WWDC, which is when we assume 11.0 Beta 1 will be released. To reach 24+ betas we need at least 14 more in 7 weeks, or at least 2 every week. That's 2.6x more than we have gotten every week over the last 13 weeks.
Alternatively, if we continue at our current rate, we will end up with about 15-16 betas.

And by the way, @Mlrollin91, here was my slightly facetious reply to the same question at the time. Think that's a bit low

You are still missing the point of the post!!! Notice how I say "potentially".
