Server migration done, it should operate normally(now has 96TB in RAID-10).

Progress of 5v2 pawnful: 93/210, 4v3 pawnful: 27/325.

Speed is about 6 hours per set on each machine(total of 8 sets per day), estimated full 7-piece available in about 52 days.

amazing achievement. Thanks. (I had thought that we would have to wait at least a few years before 7 men becomes available. )

Carlsen–Caruana right now has a root position in KQPPPvKQ, which is among the generated tables :-)

BTW, is there already a version of Stockfish who can use this 7 pieces files (especially the KRPPKRP) ?

Is there a Fathom version yet?

Yes I am wondering - how hard is it to add this support to Fathom?

Probably not very hard for someone who already knows the Fathom code—it appears to use Syzygy code that's descendant from the original somehow (yet somewhat different).
