Right now the public betas are El Capitan updates.  Apple will almost certainly 
release a final release of El Capitan and then sometime in September we’ll see 
the next revision.  I know in the public beta of IOS improvements in call 
routing are under way and smashing of other bugs, I’d assume we’ll see similar 
in the next release as well as the introduction of new bugs.:)  That’s the way 
that goes.
