Hi

Basically any version should be ok. But personally I prefer to start using from x.y.z, where y > 0 and z > 2 as quite often there are some annoyances on those first major and minor versions. Also I try to avoid too recently released unless I know that there are some issues fixed which has hit my environment. Usually I try to found some comments from here or slack if anyone had found some issues from those.

my current preferred releases are 8.1.7.2 and 8.2.4.
