An issue is that the previous releases still exist (retail Mac OS X Leopard boxes are still 10.5?) and that someone may need to support them. And in these cases, I would consider that retain/release is more reliable.

Let me re-emphasize one point: I'm referring to new development. Given the APIs and technologies in Leopard, its maturity within the marketplace, the sales rate of Macs, the typical multi-month app development cycle, and the extremely high upgrade rate for previous owners, targeting new development to Leopard only makes a lot of sense.

Targeting Leopard makes sense. I was just referring to Leopard 10.5, 10.5.1 and 10.5.2 assuming the bugs had been fixed in 10.5.3.


I have a stupid question too. Considering that I sometimes see warnings in Console.app related to Garbage Collection, does this mean that:

- the issue is in the application (Xcode sometimes display warnings for instance) and not in the GC?

or

- that GC is more complex than retain/release in some cases?

The warning you are referring to is likely this one?

Affirmative.
