OffColour1972is there anything new with Android 11?

there was a google devops talk last week, where someone had the same question.
The answer was, that there will be a new feature that will give us the possibility to assign an ou to a identity provider.
If we combine that with android 11 company owned devices that have work profiles on it, a login in gsuite apps will work.
I hope this will happen
