Unity Hololens 5.4.0b10-HTP vs Unity 5.4.0b15

It looks like build of Unity for Hololens is already 4 builds behind the the main Unity beta branch, so I'm curious when (I believe it is not if ) the Hololens version of Unity should catch up with the main branch again?

And side question - whether it always be a separate version of Unity with Hololens support or the Hololens support will be added to main Unity branch eventually and there will be only one Unity after all? And if "yes" - any ETA?

    The short answer is: yes. Unity will integrate HoloLens support into their main branch. At the moment though, we don't have an ETA to share.

    Stay tuned - we'll let you know when we have more info.
