Yes, 6 and 7 will be EOLed when 8.0 GM is released - at the moment they are
being updated only for critical reasons (eg SSL update, or XCode
compatibility).

So yes, you should be considering wholesale transfer to 8 ASAP. The vast
majority of further work on 8.0 will be LiveCode Builder or IDE related, so
the core engine is pretty stable and has many improvements over the 7.1
engine.

Well, I'll transfer just as soon as the Dictionary has been sorted out.

*Script Editor Performance*
The script editor's performance with large scripts has been improved.

Is there any way that this can make it into 7?  I lose amazing amounts

I'm afraid not - even if
the current crop of 7.1 RCs weren't intended to be
the last ones,
Hmm? Does that mean that the LiveCode 7 series is very nearly EOL, and
we should
be considering wholesale transfer to LiveCode 8?

This seems a bit odd when a new LiveCode 6 series has just been released.

and the 8.0 script editor weren't forked, there were several
changes in the engine facilitating the performance boost which cannot be
easily backported.

Can I encourage you to give 8.0 a try instead?
