Still waiting for Google Apps accounts to support "Google Profiles"

With all the hype about "Google+" I would love to give it a shot... but there's one teensy tiny problem:

The lack of a Google Profile makes it impossible to sign up for Google+, and it has been this way for months.  I already have waaay too many accounts to keep track of, so I refuse to create a separate Gmail account just for that one service.  Google keeps promising that it's coming, but it's been quite a while since they said:

We're actively working on making Profiles (and Google+) available for Google Apps - it should be available in the coming months  –  John Costigan @ Jun 28, 2011

Here's hoping that it will be sometime soon!
