Yes, 0.7 and 0.8 may be developed simultaneously (0.8 in master, 0.7 in
speech-dispatcher-0-7), but you asked about cleanup patches.  I believe these 
should
better wait after 0.7.1 release to allow merging 0.7.1 changes to master.  This 
merging
would need to be done manually if we start cleaning up now, so I think it makes 
sense to
wait, even though I am also looking forward to see this cleanup to happen.

Hope this makes sense now.
