OK, Christmas caught up with me a bit… I’ve just created a branch for 8x from 
master, and am in the process of updating the master branch to version 9.  New 
commits that should be included in the 8.0 release should also be back-ported 
to branch_8x from master.

This is not intended as a feature freeze, as I know there are still some things 
being worked on for 8.0; however, it should let us clean up master by removing 
as much deprecated code as possible, and give us an idea of any replacement 
work that needs to be done.
