Hi Phil:

It definitely isn’t the hell-disaster that was 10.7.  As far as I am able to 
tell, coot will work fine as long as you uncheck “Displays have separate 
Spaces” which basically puts it back to the behavior you have right now with 
10.8.    

Apart from the above, the biggest irritations have been Mail.app not playing 
well with NSA/Gmail, and clang++/libc++

Paul can tell you about that (ca. Nov 5th, 2013 emails).


All the best,

Bill
