    Both https://community.blackbaud.com/blogs/66/2701 and https://community.blackbaud.com/blogs/66/2838 said that 7.1 would begin to be released in October. Our NetCommunity is hosted by Blackbaud and we are still on 7.0.144.2. We have not received notification of an upcoming upgrade from hosting, end-of-year giving is ramping up, and your hosting and support people will presumably be taking holiday time. When should we expect to be upgraded to the 7.1 release?

    Thank you for checking in, Greg, and apologies for any confusion. Taking into account all that you mentioned regarding end of year giving as well as staffing, we will release Blackbaud NetCommunity 7.1 in Jan 2017. As always, you can expect to receive 72-hour advance notice from us when your site is ready to be updated.

    What confusion are you referring to? Here's another one, https://community.blackbaud.com/blogs/66/2786, posted the 4th of October: "...what you can expect in Blackbaud NetCommunity 7.1...will be making it available at the end of this month". Was I incorrect to understand the release would begin in October? If not, did Blackbaud communicate the slip in something I missed?
