NIDAQ tools mx for 64-bit Igor

I have recently written some 2-photon imaging procedures for Igor (https://github.com/brandonStell/Igor2p) and have run into some memory problems when dealing with large stacks of images. I haven't been able to get the NIDAQ tools mx running in the 64-bit version of Igor. Before investing too much time trying to see why it's not working, I would like to verify that it should theoretically work.

Thanks
We have not created the necessary 64-bit XOP for NIDAQ Tools MX. That is why you can't make it work.

A 64-bit version is high on the priority list when we finally have Igor 7 released.

Is there an ETA?
Is there a public list of changes in Igor 7?
Our lab is a heavy user of Igor and will certainly be interested in an upgrade.

Add me to the list of those eagerly awaiting updates to NIDAQmx. Apropos of which, I have a PCIe-6351 with ability to do quadrature decoding. I would love to be able to do this directly from within Igor. (There is no way to make use of this functionality with Igor and NIDAQmx as it stands, is there?) My solution now is to use an HCTL-2032 decoder chip, and read the counts from that with NIDAQtools.

cheers,
