Also, if an application works on IIS 7, would it be cool on the new version (if there is any)?

Err...even Microsoft's marketing material is confusing! (says both IIS 7.0 and 7.5). However, I believe that Windows Server 2008 Web comes with IIS 7.0 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Web comes with IIS 7.5 FYI.
And yes, if you have an app working on IIS 7, it will work fine on IIS 7.5.

IIS version 7.5.
My guess is if Microsoft doesn't suck, an app working in 7.0 should be fine on a newer subversion, there should be no core changes. Then again, it is Microsoft, so I can't say that for certain.

It says "Powerful tools such as Internet Information Services (IIS) version 7.5, updated Server Manager and Hyper-V platforms and Windows PowerShell version 2.0", under "What is Windows Server 2008 R2?".

7.5 is included in R2. In vanilla 2008 it's 7.0.
