Elite update on oculus home today

Elite was just updated on oculus home about an hour ago. There are no patch notes listed. Any chance this may be an update for oculus dash which comes out today?
 

Oh well I was hoping for day 1 update. In the oculus presentation at OC4 nate mitchell literally used Elite as an example to pin something and showed a screenshot:

I'm still unsure what Elite's lack of Dash support will really mean. It seems like we'll still be able to pin windows in the game. The beta is apparently out right now, someone test it!

Edit: apparently that was just internet rumor, nevermind. I'm hoping Dash will be up and running tonight when I get home from work.

So here's what I'm aware of. Without an update for dash support when you click on the home button you'll be taken back to the void (what we have now). And with dash support the dash control will just pop up in game for you as an overlay. I'm not sure if pinning programs will work without an update though but listening to the talk it seems like it should. It would just be difficult to see where it would show up in game since you'll be in the void. I guess we'll find out soon.
 
Looks like it's available! Worth a read. Of note:
App Compatibility
In some legacy apps, when you press the Oculus button, Dash will not come up as an overlay inside of the app, but will instead open in its own environment. All other Dash functionality will be available. We recently introduced tools so developers can integrate full Dash support and our list of fully Dash-compatible apps is growing.
