Master seems pretty stable now and I think a 7.8 release would be OK 
but there are a few semi-major things coming in:

1. A lot of EGL and OpenGL ES changes.

2. I have an outstanding branch that cleans up some texture image code 
related to mapping/unmapping that I'd like to get merged but it could 
break some things.  I'll try to get back on that one of these days.

3. Ongoing enhancements to gallium to support GL3.  That's being done 
step-by-step and shouldn't cause much upheaval.  We can probably put a 
stake in the ground at any time for 7.8.

BTW, when we do get GL3 support we'll bump Mesa to 8.0 but there's no 
target date yet.

Sounds OK to me.
