Well, I updated everything (about 20 apps) on Fast Ring 5 minutes ago, and they are still behind Skip Ahead. But as I said, not all apps a different, but many are.
UPDATE: Check attachments for my packages, they are in random order. I will try to script this at some point so we can get an automated comparison report:
packages_17017_fast_Ring.txt
packages_17017_skip_ahead.txt

I guess the merging of the Rings is bugged as we are getting different results. I can accept setting the skip ahead flag probably bypasses it. No point in wasting time doing more checks.
Let's just wait until next build which will be unique as it was neither started from Skippy or Fast Ring. Then we can clean install it with flag set or not and compare differences then.
Yes - I understand that but I believe something is tangled up with settings, I do not believe it is MS's intent to keep two sub Rings going, and I think that they have not properly merged the Two Rings, and the differing results we are seeing is is due to buggy behaviour. That is why I am going to wait for next upgrade, to see what the situation is then.
I cannot see any point now Rings have merged NOT to give all users latest apps. It made sense before FAST Ring moved to RS4, as it was quite possible some of the latest apps would not make the cut for RS3. This is not the case now - it will only become applicable when RS5 is under development.
Only with next insider build shall we see if they merged them or not and/or to what extent.
