the reason is 1) to save effort (doing two releases together is a bit less work than two separate releases) 2) two Mac OS X problems on Mavericks (signed kernel extensions and the problem of the ghost icon remaining in the dock after a VM attached to a host-only network interface was terminated. It took some time to find the fixes. Kind regards, Frank -- Dr.-Ing. Frank Mehnert | Software Development Director, VirtualBox ORACLE Deutschland B.V. & Co.
