Is the VST Bridge not released yet?

I'm very new to Usine. The VST Bridge sounds very helpful, I haven't found it yet though. I suppose it is not released yet? Is this the same as the "MIDI Lan & Bridge"?

I'm wondering if I would be able to do this:
I would like to be synchronized to a collaborator who is using Ableton Link. We are plugged into the same LAN.

A. I could run a host that can receive Ableton Link (Max MSP or Ableton). I load the VST Bridge into that host to transmit sync to Usine.
or
B. I run Reaktor 6 standalone, turn on Ableton Link, send MIDI Clock (or OSC sync?) to Usine.

Or is there a better way to receive Ableton Link?
Thanks!

VST bridge is not released but you can send/receive synchro via a MIDI virtual device ( IAC on Mac for example?)
Right click on your MIDI out device and activate "send MIDI clock"

I have actually just tested syncing Usine to Bitwig via LoopMIDI and to my big surprise it's rock solid unlike before! I think I've tried it on early beta testing and gave up on this method, since just like with HH3 bpm would always jitter like crazy when sending/receiving clock over virtual midi, but now it works spot on.
