1.6.8  - stable release
1.7.*  - previous development release (forget it)
1.8.0  - next stable release (but currently in preview)

There are two daily snapshots,
  1.6.8  - stable
  1.8.0 (preview) - development (until final)

When 1.8.0 is final, (I think) you'll see:

  1.8.*  - stable
  1.9.*  - development
