Right.  OpenVMS VAX V7.3 is the most recent VAX release, from
2001.

As has been mentioned before, OpenVMS VAX V7.3 could have also
been named OpenVMS VAX V6.6, as there were no standard
"major version" changes made to the VAX kernel at the time
of the V7.0 release for the VAX.

One nice thing added to V7.3 for the VAX was the ability to
participate in shadow sets using mini copy.
