LL3.8: release date 1st February 2018 - see this link for the source of this information and other details at https://dfgkh547-jsdfv8.iyhkj.tk/download.php#roadmap
As far as I know, there are no plans afoot for UEFI support - the reason for this is that the LL developers think that it's not needed (you can install LL, or dual-boot it with Windows OS, in BIOS mode on a UEFI computer), and I have understood that UEFI is a complicated, troublesome and needless piece of software that only appears to be of benefit to Microsoft.
64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
