Oooh. topnewsdigest.com. That's where I go for all my Apple-related
news.
I don't know where they got that. But wherever it's from it's likely
from pre-release documentation and likely wildly inaccurate. Or
maybe there's some grain of truth to it, but it isn't what you
think. Who knows?
FWIW, it's from the "Upgrading and Migrating" doc for Snow Leopard.
I agree with those who have already posted that what "not supported"
really means is probably more like "not included" I've read in other
places that one of the goals of Snow Leopard was to use less disk
space so I think they pared it down to only the really commonly used
packages, and I think we would all agree that WO isn't in that category.
However, I do wish that Apple would be more careful about their
wording. It's quite understandable that folks would take "not
supported" literally, and in this community that's pretty much like
shouting "Fire!"
Also, regarding the lack of WO stuff at WWDC this year - I mentioned
this to an Apple employee who sat next to me at lunch, and he said
that Apple put all their resources into WOWODC this year since that's
where the most WO users are. This make perfect sense to me,
especially since WWDC was so much "all iPhone, all the time" that I
expect there was fierce competition for every time slot. We probably
got more attention from Apple this way, and I'm ok with that.
janine, mostly quiet these days but not entirely gone :)
