About Mountain Lion security updates
First, sorry if this is the wrong way to contact you. I haven't edited Wikipedia in a while and I'm confused about how to have a conversation with another editor.

You removed my change suggesting that we wait for Apple to act in some way. The problem with that is that Apple *never* declares a version of OS X unsupported. They just stop supporting it. And there's very good reason, which I document clearly, to believe that they have ended updates for Mountain Lion. I was in contact with Apple about this and they refused to say if they would update Mountain Lion anymore. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lseltzer (talk • contribs) 17:35, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Do not worry, it is a right way to contact other authors. Your contribution was based on YOUR original research, not an official nor an independent expert source. The main argument in your article was just like "They published the list of security improvements they implemented in Mavericks, they did not update Mountain Lion since Mavericks release, so they will publish no updates anymore." OS X Mavericks was released just a bit more than a month ago. In the past, Apple released even Snow Leopard security updates when Mountain Lion got its 5th revision (10.8.5), so your argument to demonstrate that Apple stopped supporting ML are not proven by Apple's OS X release history . Although I appreciate your efforts (and you have written a quite interesting article), I think it is quite too early to give ML the status "Unsupported". If Apple does not answer your request or tell you they do not want to comment on it, this is not consequently a proof that they will never update ML at all. We should wait some months, e. g. until OS X 10.9.3 is out and no updates for ML were released until this day, then it is more adequate to assign the status "unsupported" to OS X 10.8. --Mdphddr (talk) 23:38, 1 December 2013 (UTC)


 * It's now over 2 months since Mountain Lion was released and still there are no security updates for it (other than updates for Safari running on it). Is it still unclear to you that Apple won't be issuing any more security updates for Mountain Lion? Your example of how Apple continued to update Snow Leopard after Lion and Mountain Lion were released is not relevant; Apple issued those updates at the same time they fixed the same vulnerabilities in Lion and Mountain Lion. That's what's new here: It makes no sense to issue such updates late, so clearly they won't be issuing them.
