With minor version changes, most of the list usualy migrates fairly
quickly.  This is because the updates and bug fixes are usualy released
for the highest minor number of a major version.  On the other hand, it
is not uncommon it to run more then one major release at a time, and
belong to the lists for all of them...  So you still see trafic on the
zoot list, but when 7.1 comes out, it will not be long before this list
dies out.

Stay subscribed to this list, and join the new list.  Besides, it can be
helpfull to join the new list before you install the software.  That
way, you learn what to watch out for ahead of time...  (Why do you think
I am here - I still have to get 7.0 installed on a play machine...)
