Pan-Thor!
One of the Unsanity guys wrote a good article about what it means to be a developer who pays for access to Panther seeds.
For what it's worth, I'd love to know if Panther is really GM as the rumors suggest. I'm somewhat skeptical (given Apple's past behavior of seeding us with the GM once it happens), but I haven't asked my own "inside sources" if this is true or not.
If Panther is GM, then it's a bit unusual that pretty much any Mac user with half-decent warez skillz can grab the GM while developers who pay real money for this privilege are left waiting. I'd love nothing more than to QA my projects against the Panther GM...

It looks like we're back to the 4K78 scenario but worse.
Developers don't know whether 7B85 is the GM or not.
Developers don't have access to the 7B85 seed
Developers don't have access to the 7B85 Dev Tools
Developers want to kick someone's ass at Apple.
I wouldn't dare to add that there are bugs (big one) in 7B85 but nobody can file a bug report against them since 7B85 is not an official seed.
