I just saw that my skype for business (mac) client received an update 16.12.77. Where are the release notes?

 

When will the skype for business mac client support the new screen sharing UDP protocol (vs RDP) features that the iOS/Windows platforms support?

 

"The VbSS feature is available in the Windows desktop, Windows Phone, Android, and iOS clients. Skype for Business for the Mac is only available in preview form and doesn't appear to support VbSS yet. The web application also doesn't support VbSS." vbSS uses UDP instead of RDP and does one to one and one to many vs peer to peer. Information relevant as of end of September.

 

Our company switched from webEx to skype for business meetings officially and mac users have terrible voice/screen sharing issues.
