I am guessing the concern is that this forces people to pick something
rather than not reporting a version at all. (Note, this isn't an
objection to the idea, I'm rather ambivalent myself)

At a minimum Marc should add a note to his release process to either
update this file or send email to webmaster to update the file. In the
mean time I have updated this with 8.0 Beta and all 7.4.x versions.
