Jaguar Build 6C98 Released From Cupertino Today

For the past two weeks, Apple's Jaguar development team has been pumping builds of the new operating system out of Cupertino faster than sources could download and report on them individually. Today marked the release of build 6C98, which includes a virtually nonexistent list of known issues. This is the build expected to be demonstrated at tomorrow's keynote presentation by Apple CEO Steve Jobs. On the other hand, the build that has been pre-loaded on many of the company's exhibit machines is rumored to be build 6C92, the first to include the MPEG4 enhanced iTunes 3.0 software as part of Apple's seeding process.

Jaguar is now ahead of Apple's previously announced release schedule, but contrary to a CNET report published two weeks ago, builds of Jaguar have not slowed from 2 seedings a week, they have actually increased drastically. A new build of Jaguar has appeared daily for the last two weeks. Above are some screenshots of build 6C82, containing images of Jaguar's AirPort Software base-station, Sherlock 3, and more.
