This was mentioned in another thread and seems to have been very quietly slipped out
https://www.bentley.com/en/about-us/news/2019/may/01/product-announcement-microstation-v8i-selectseries-10-now-available
The release of that version changes the meaning of this page by 6 months and a year for the support of v8iSS4.

yep
Strangely I have just had an email from Bentley confirming this release!!
I don't want to go into the details as to why we don't use them, just not enough time to explain. It has something to do with how our data is structured on our server and how much time we have spare to implement this properly (I mean honestly, how often will we update V8i at all in the future). I discussed this in some old threads already and also in-house and we decided to wait until we can all switch to CE.
The URL supplied by Duncan links to a piecce of text that amongst others claims "complete fidelity of existing workspaces and MDL customizations". So it should have the same structure, not some kind of complete makeover.
Backup/rename your old workspace, install new V8iSS10, Then copy your precious files over the Bentley files.Don't forget to backup.
Your user settings should be on a network somehow, but you're right: never time to fix those kind of things.

so is v8i ss10 still 32bit or is it 64bit?

It is possible to have a Hybrid (V8i and CE pointing to same settings files, DGNLIBs, Cells, etc.) Configuration (was V8i Workspace). Please look for articles on Configuration Assistant to find out how.
