As of ImageIO-Ext 1.0.8 the goal was to use a minor >=3.
Same should go with 1.1.x and 1.2.x althoug there is a "but"; read below....

1.1.x will track 1.7.x

1.2.x (trunk) will track 1.8.x

The truth is, both should work without problems with gdal 1.8
snaphots, although we do not recommend that.

1.1.x and 1.2.x use unmodified gdal java bindings. Building additional
drivers is a challenge though

You should be able to use imageio-ext 1.1.x with gdal 1.8 snaphots. In
my tests it has worked fine so far.
