There aren't a lot of outstanding issues with version 8.0, so using it should
be considered. You might want to look and see if any of the new features
will be useful for you. If not, maybe sticking with 7.4 would be better for
you.
Also note that there is an 8.0.2 beta available and there will probably be
an 8.0.2 release late in the week. If you are going to start testing, you
want to grab 8.0.2.
