Apple on Tuesday seeded to developers the latest beta versions of its Safari Web browser for OS X Mavericks, Mountain Lion and Lion, asking testers to focus on AutoFill features and general compatibility improvements.
According to people familiar with the pre-release software, dubbed Safari 7.0.3 for OS X 10.9 Mavericks and Safari 6.1.3 for Mountain Lion and Lion, Apple is asking developers to focus on general website compatibility, push notifications and AutoFill enhancements.
Apple introduced Safari push notifications in version 7.0 of the Mac Web browser, allowing websites to deliver real-time breaking news, important updates and other content via Notification Center.
In addition, Apple is requesting testing of the Login AutoFill feature and generic extension compatibility, while credit card AutoFill is getting special treatment in the OS X Mavericks-only Safari update.
All three seeds can be downloaded individually from Apple's Developer Center.

Never should have given up on Safari for Windows.
I still use Safari for Windows. I wish they didn't stop development either, I really miss iCoud tabs. Firefox is a good backup.
Hey, same here. It does the job better than anything else Windows has. Few glitches these days from it being on OS’ that weren’t even around when it last came out but…
Plethora, anxiety or the vanity version of cartel browsing.
Interesting. I'm surprised they are pushing out non-security updates for apps before Mavericks now that everyone using Lion or ML can freely update to Mavericks. I saw that as one of the benefits when postulated how making OS X free would reduce support costs and gets more users on the latest OS.
