I'm about to deploy some new database servers using DRBD, and I'm 
wondering if I should deploy them with 0.7 or 8. I don't need 
primary/primary, so 0.7 works just fine for me, but I'm worried about how 
much longer the 0.7 branch will be maintained. At the same time, I'm 
worried about how fully baked 8 is - I see many emails about problems with 
8 that have been found and fixed in the next release.

If I deploy with 0.7, can I upgrade to 8 without reformatting my block 
devices?
