[WinPartners] MIT WSUS - roll-up or not ?

I'm curious if MIT will start to deliver Windows 10 milestone updates via WSUS. Will users on MIT WSUS get Redstone eventually? They could install the long-term service release if they weren't looking for the regular OS updates. Did they ever deliver Threshold 2 via WSUS? I started my Win10 deployments at Threshold 2, so I don't know myself.

Via SANS:

Starting next month, Microsoft will change how some of its patches for Windows are delivered. Starting October 11, updates for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 will be cumulative, No more individual patches. Updates will be delivered as a monthly roll-up or a security-only update. Users running Windows Update will automatically default to the monthly roll-up option. Organizations running Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) or System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) can choose either option.


Which option will MIT WSUS be using ?
