Is Dolby Pulse exactly the same as HE-AAC V2?


Quote from Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Laboratories):

"Dolby Pulse: released in 2009, it is identical to the HE-AAC v2 codec except for the addition of Dolby metadata, which is common to Dolby's other digital audio codecs. This metadata "ensures consistency of broadcast quality." "

Does anyone know anything about Dolby Pulse development? Is it still only HE v2? Was it meat to be upgraded/expanded to LC, HEv1? Pardon the stupid question. Thanks.
