Yes, definitely.  I'm going to move to 7.1 rc1 pretty soon (or rc2 if it happens before I have time to compile rc1 :).  The OpenACS itself doesn't require it, of course, but some of the new features are VERY welcome.  Outer joins, write-ahead-logging (resulting in MUCH faster dml), arbitrarily-long (and user-transparent) varchars, and subqueries in FROM clauses.
