Did it get drywalled-over and forgotten? :)

Seriously, you would do well to keep a better eye on when versions get
end-of-lifed (though I don't know if that was very formal back then).
7.3 will be E-O-L'd soon (with 8.2's release, I think), and I don't
think 7.4 will be far behind. So you actually need to start looking at
moving off of 7.4 as well.

And of course you should always upgrade to newer point releases when
they come out (like they did today).
