Will there be a Sage 7.6 VM??
Is there a reason why there are no VMs for Sage after version 7.4? I run Sage on Windows so I depend on virtual machines.

EDIT (3 April 2017): The VM files for Sage 7.6 are ready at http://www.sagemath.org/download-wind...
Instead of the Virtual Machine, it is recommended to run Sage 7.6 in Windows via Docker: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-wi...
To install Sage 7.6 image, do
docker pull sagemath/sagemath
Then run it via
docker run -it sagemath/sagemath
To run it in the Jupyter notebook:
docker run -p 8888:8888 sagemath/sagemath-jupyter
or in the Sage legacy notebook:
docker run -p 8080:8080 sagemath/sagemath sage -notebook

FWIW the only reason is that the person who usually makes the VMs hasn't updated them yet. Have you tried the Docker images yet? It's generally a much more lightweight and seamless experience than using a full VM, though there may be some features missing--it depends on what you need.
