New Capabilities for OneDrive Announced Today at SharePoint Conference North America

Seamless deployment and onboarding
- Known folder move - This capability will allow administrators to move known folders from their PC including Documents, Desktop, and Pictures to OneDrive. This includes support for initial account configuration as well as post-deployment migration.
- Team site automount - This feature offers administrators the ability to automatically connect and synchronize specific SharePoint team sites as part of a OneDrive deployment or upgrade process.
Will Known Folder Move and/or Team Site Automount require the upcoming Windows 1809 release? 1803? 1709? Just want to plan for the minimum Windows version that our customers will need to be on when this is released.
Can we get more specific release dates for Known Folder Move and Team Site Automount?
The Roadmap currently states Q4 CY2018, but this blog post states in the next few months. Does this mean that First Release will get it in (May, June, July...) August and that it will go GA by (October through...) December?
Also, can we get some clarification on Team Site Automount...
- Will it be controlled through SharePoint Admin Center, O365 Admin Center, MDM, Group Policy, and/or PowerShell?
- Will it support Office 365 Group Document Libraries?
- Are there any known limitations that we should begin to prepare for?
Thank you and really looking forward to these features!
