For 10.2.8 , there's a download of more than a megabyte. There's surely more to it than a fix to Safari's cookie-handling. Does anyone know?
Actual conversation between UCLA and Stanford during a login on early Internet - U: I'm going to type an L! Did you get an L? S: I got one-one-four. L! U:Did you get the O? S: One-one-seven. U: <types G> S: The computer just crashed.

To update Safari's cookie handling Apple has to update the Foundation framework, which contains much of Safari (namely WebKit/WebCore/JavaScriptCore etc).

The Foundation framework does not contain WebKit, WebCore, or JavaScriptCore. WebKit is a separate framework, and it contains WebCore and JavaScriptCore.

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!

Eeek. You're right of course. I was getting carried away

Foundation contains the "NSURL" family, which handle the getting of data from a URL.
