Not true, they're working on them, as they've publically stated (albeit,
probably after your post).
Also, Apple didn't go to 11 because how confusing would it be to say
"Mac OS X 11". Apple seems to be conserving numbers as much as possible
to push off that day as long as they can.
"Mac OS Ten" "version 11.1" will be confusing. They shoulda restarted at
"Mac OS X, version 1.0", if you ask me. But too late.
The 10.0 -> 10.1 -> 10.2 -> 10.3 upgrades have all been very
significant. Apple's just saving numbers.
