The 7.0 release applies to both 300 and 800 and is planned to happen
concurrently!  (Yes, the 800 is skipping from 3.1 to 7.0 to sync up with
the older 300 numbering sequence.  For old timers, you'll remember the
300 started at 5.0 to sync up with the 500.  For newcomers, this all
probably seems like nonsense, but then so did going from Version 7 to
System III :-).  You'll also be pleased to find that we're converging
functionality a lot better on the 300 and 800, not just release numbers!
