They will not be doing a 7. Just 8.
That said ... it's probably a great idea to take this conversation over
to *their* mailing lists. There's an extent to which this conversation
is relevant to this list - after all, we're all part of the same

of Alma itself, it's veering off-topic, and you'll get better answers
over there.
