And when that's out, you'll be waiting for 7.2.2?

I can understand reluctance to install whatever.0 as a production
server on its first day of release.  But we have enough field experience
now with 7.0.* to say confidently that it is more stable than 6.5.*,
and we know for a fact that we have fixed hundreds of bugs in it
compared to 6.5.*.  Frankly, if I had to bet today, I'd bet on 7.1.*
being less stable than 7.0.*, at least till we shake out all the
implications of TOAST, WAL, etc.

If you're being bitten by 6.5.* bugs then an update seems in order.
