Patches for Mac OS X site and Big Sur

Does anyone have any idea when the Patches for Mac OS X will include fixlets for Big Sur?

We are working on it and it is planned for Q1, 2021.

Out of curiosity, is Big Sur reporting as 10.16.x or 11.x.x on BF client 10.0.2 ?

The 10.0.1 (and 9.5.14) BES client will run (possibly, sub-optimally) on Big Sur in my experience, but it reports the OS version as 10.16.x

BES Client 10.0.2 reports macOS 11.x for Big Sur.

@mattporter About the 10.16 vs. 11 thing, this post may help clarify:

Cool, thanks. It looks like I need to update some site subscription relevance and some other content to account for turning it up to 11…
