To be fair, Apple hasn't said they *won't* make the security patches
available for Jaguar.  They just haven't said anything yet.  I'm really
hoping they do the right thing, even if it's later than they should have.

I run Jaguar on my Mac, and have no current plans to upgrade to Panther.
So I really hope Apple doesn't do me wrong on this.
