Read the ChangeLog, and make up your own mind:

I count 62 changes since v1.7.40.  Surely something in there will catch 
your eye?  And if not, let us know what you _would_ like to see.

For me, the main reason to upgrade is that all future features and 
noncritical bug fixes will be applied to the v2.0 line only.  Because 
this version cleans up a lot of past baggage, upgrading will likely 
requires changes to your program.  You might as well get them out of the 
way now, unless you're so satisfied with 1.7 that you'll never upgrade.
