Will MultiBeast 8 bring Skylake support since 10.11.1 added initial Skylake support. I know there is no full Skylake support yet, but I was wondering you were working on it.

Is it possible to post an anticipated availability date. I realize that dates can change but forecasts are part of today's world and are very useful for those needing to plan around a delay.
I personally made the mistake of moving too fast on an El Capitan upgrade with the newly released Clover oriented tools. I should have had a sacrificial test machine. I got too sure of myself as the powerPC machines were replaced to the point that I had no test machine based on Intel. What I experienced was pure hell in trying to recover to a working Yosemite Hack and to cover my butt, bought a used Mac AIR from ebay to minimize my downtime.
I appreciate the volunteer efforts here but I feel compelled to point out that the Clover oriented tools were not ready for prime time and probably should have been delayed for release. It was simply too big of a release given all the other problems that crept up such as USB compatibility. I run an SSD for the system disk and a spin disk for user files so I had multiple volumes that needed backup. I'm at least in a holding pattern right now.
Keep up the good work but be more thorough even if it means slower adaptability.
PS: A long time ago, I introduced Apple to the big time with Hubble and before that cut my teeth with vacuum tube machines. If anything, I'm old but not stupid.
