I honest don't think it's been released yet. When I checked last night the MU logs indicated no updates yet.
@Susan
Unfortunately this version will still NOT be offered directly through MU, you will have to rely on the client updating mechanism or do it manually by downloading the update from the catalog.
I know that. I'm still not seeing it detecting any update on MU in the background
