thread, can you please resent, as I did not get it.

Hello, I have a Power Mac Dual G5, it's current state is that I
develop on it, and have the 1.7 branch of MacPorts installed.
I have no problems blowing away /opt/local and starting clean.
There are a few sites that I would back up, and a few databases I
would maintain, but outside of that, there is not a lot going on.
I want to start using this as a main production machine, and
migrating old sites to it in an effort to retire some older machines.
Should I update to 1.8, or would it be better to install clean?
As it is now, my only needs are Apache2, MySql5, and php current. I
just need to know that those things will build clean and without
trouble. I can afford a few hours downtime on this machine as it is
now.
What is your suggested course of action? I have been reading some
reports of troubles here with 1.8, and want to make sure I am not
getting into a situation in which I will be stuck, or have to just
install 1.7 and go from there.
Once I build this machine out, it would be best to not have to shove
1.8 ontop of 1.7 just for the sake of being clean about it.
