NI 488.2 for Mac OS X 10.7.1

Can you give a timeline on when a Mac version of the 488.2 driver will be available that works with 64-bit applications?  Use-cases would be Python (pyvisa) and Matlab.

I contacted R&D for more information:

 

We are currently working on a new version of NI-488.2 for Mac OS X. This release will support  OS X Yosemite and add 64-bit application support. The 64-bit API will be usable through LabVIEW 2014, NI-VISA 14.0, and the NI-488.2 C interface.
