Sound reasonable ,but you have to ask sometimes , and even silence is an
answer ;) which concur with your pow that not even the logitech folk
knows......

Even if work has been slow there are some improvements in 7.8 a pity if
not went official , but i'll wait if they commit some more time and do
away some of the remaining bugs , as it EOL they don’t have to be
inventive just fix issues with the expected functionality .
And some fixes may actually be needed in UE 10.0.1 for example fixing
the track-art vs album-art issue or any scanner related bug will also
benefit 10.0.1 this is plausible if they want a "simple product" scanner
not crashing is an even more critical issue .

And the Radio has never had any fw beyond 7.7.2 this is most unlikely to
change i think ? as it is not user salvageable if it went wrong , Touch
or controller can be saved with SD-card or USB stick .

I have quite a lot of nightly RPM builds backed up . I'll almost always
run nightly builds , but there is not much point if debugging input or
other user input is not wanted any more , but i like 7.8 and would be
happy to see a stabilised debugged version as the last official release
:)
I know that some web-UI centric users with an affection for perfect tags
and dB skills prefer 7.5.x series more consistent presentation , there
was after all a whole zoo of unresolved bugs in the web-UI presentation
introduced by "onebrowser" .
