While MacX has been announced, it is not yet shipping.  It will NOT be
available through APDA.  Current plans are to distribute it through
Apple's existing base of Networking and Communications Authorized Dealers.
I'm sure Apple will make an announcement when it actually starts shipping.

That is all the info I have right now.
