Original editorial synthesis. Linked references appear with the claims they support and in the source ledger.
Beta 6 release identity
Contemporaneous release reporting identifies iOS 5 Beta 6 as available to developers on 2011-08-19. This batch creates that historical event identity without adding a milestone to the hardcoded seed file.[1]
Structured developer-note delta
The page contains 22 source-linked records: 14 explicit fixes, 4 known milestone conditions, and 4 API or behavior changes. Repeated cumulative text is excluded unless it is needed to show continuing state.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]
Evidence boundary
The detailed notes survive through a third-party reproduction of Apple’s developer material. The page paraphrases selected records, credits both the original author and preserving publisher, and makes no claim of completeness.[24]
