No date has yet been set for the end of life / end of support for the
7.0.x branch. We aim to provide 12 months notice when setting such
dates. Given that the E.O.L. date for 6.0.x is 31-Dec-2016 I think it is
likely that 7.0.x will be supported for at least another 3 to 4 years.

There are quite a few:

Upgrade to the latest 7.0.x release (7.0.65 as I type this).

Security fixes and bug fixes.
