The SL7 beta is stable enough for testing, if not producton. A mass
migration from SL6 to SL7 is not going to be a trivial update, and I'd
urge a complete re-installation. The amount of system configuration
software that will break due to the switch to 'systemd' and the
relocation of "/bin" and "/sbin" to symlinks, and the resource
allocations for the much bulkier Gnome3 are... well, it's enough to
force starting over from scratch.
