I'll just go with what Notch said. He clearly said that 1.7 maps will not work, and if they do it'll feel something like a demo so it is better to just McEdit and move your precious stuff into 1.8 or simply start fresh. All there is too it.
So you guys got two-three options:
Plan A: Simple exploration into unexplored chunks
Plan B: McEdit your world into a new 1.8 map
Plan C: Explore new 1.8 map starting fresh.
For those that said "you misheard" need to be slapped. Stay neutral and don't force words into different meanings about what it should or shouldn't mean :dry.gif:. Cheap trick. If 1.7 maps work with 1.8 then great, enjoy those unpleasantly spawned chunks with limitations (as said by Notch) lol.
So ya, basically what you guys said in this and every other thread.
That what Notch was talking about. Plan A wont work. You'll have to Generate a new world with a fresh new start. My question was about the servers, but it has been answered, we will not be able to use the maps on 1.8 eithier.

YOU CAN USE YOUR OLDER MAPS IN 1.8, YOU JUST NEED TO GENERATE NEW CHUNKS TO GET THE NEW CONTENT.
SERVERS CAN USE THEIR CURRENT MAPS. NEW STUFF WILL HAVE TO BE GENERATED JUST LIKE THE SSP WORLDS.
