Yes, FFH and EitB still have bug/balance issues around spells with Pitboss. Not recommended until Sareln has the time to find and fix the remaining bugs. Last I heard, he was neck deep in thesis writing, so that may be a while yet.
Story of my life right now. Walk the hallways carefully b/c if I'm spotted by a committee-member they'll ask how the thesis is going 
Chalk me for an anti-sign-up as well!

OK, so just counted up the numbers, and it looks like there is likely to be at least 7 parties that want to play a game (ie 7 turn players) after PB8 finishes.
Am I right in thinking that the general thoughts are AI diplomacy and NTT?

Changing my "sign-up", I'd also be willing to play alone.
Though still don't have anything against teaming up with a stronger Civ player

Yes to AI diplo, don't care about tech trading (assuming RBMod), still think that tech trading worked out fine in PBEM20

Would anybody care about trying out No Tech Brokering in a future game?

I'd be interested as well after PB8 has finished. Not before though. Would also try out NTB.

No game can start until PB8 has finished. I'm just trying to get a feel for how many groups want to take part. Specifically, I'm unsure if there will be more than 15 parties, because at that point we start approaching PB3 levels of involvement. Whilst I think AI diplomacy should alleviate most of the difficulties with having so many teams, I wouldn't want to run in and start a game that is only going to crash and burn 6 months down the line. All this is just preparation work.
