Release notes

What changed

Original editorial synthesis. Linked references appear with the claims they support and in the source ledger.

Evidence that survives

The 23-page Beta 6 PDF contains 218 bullets and 203 distinct issue identifiers; the semantic comparison isolates 15 records. The source is Apple-authored developer material retained by a public historical mirror, so this page records the mirror provenance instead of presenting it as an Apple-hosted beta archive.[1]

What Beta 6 documents

This structured snapshot contains 15 narrowly attributed feature, behavior, compatibility, issue, or resolution records. Each occurrence keeps its Apple component, status heading, and issue identifier where Apple supplied one.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]

Delta boundary

The Beta 6 document was compared directly with Beta 5. Only new records and genuine transitions from known or new issues into Resolved Issues are retained.[32][33]

Archive limitations

The article does not reproduce Apple’s document, import publisher commentary, claim an exhaustive user-visible changelog, or infer a build number. Apple’s final archived SDK page establishes the final-document boundary but is not used to assign final-state records to this beta.[34]
