... and not to forget 7,1 is as well in work.... so 4 scripts/versions

but:

8 - The New Beginning

So, 8 years behind. Versions “8” coming soon. We have high hopes and huge plans. The next year is the BoonEx year!

This was mentioned by unoboonex 232 days ago. And now only 4 months before the next year is finished we start reporting 6xxx bugs. Maybe unoboonex means with the next year the calender year, but anyway, it is 8 months ago.
I have sure nothing against unoboonex or the team. see more I really like them. Because this and my own hopes I want them to be successful and not out of the most important focus. Otherwise the whole thing comes really to a never ending story - and when I see all that suggestions and wishes here for the outdated version - it look strong like it comes to, because it will take lots of power away from the work for the release of 7, not to talk about V8 or even 7.1 .....
