Am I surprised at this tactic of non-notification or awareness of
public availability, no, I expected about as much but
(unfortunately) hoped for something different.
Thanks for the post, and the follow-up. I would certainly hope
that apple rolls this into a forthcoming system update.
Accordingly, it would be a good idea to configure your workaround
under the assumption that apple will fix this for everybody.
That would entail some kind of public admission of the mistake,
something not likely to occur.
Not really - Apple has the (bad) habit of rolling undocumented
changes into OS-updates as they see fit. Therefore, they wouldn't
have to admit to anything publicly in this case.
I agree with your opinion regarding Apple's communication practices,
particularly towards their enterprise support clientel. There have
been more than a few cases where product marketing apparently decided
how much information support reps are allowed to give to customers
regarding flaws in Apple's products. Clearly not enterprise-worthy
behavior, IMO. I wonder if this will ever improve...
FWIW,
Ron
