Stale release branches
Folks
There is a number of release branches that we will never ever release
from any more. They cause no harm but sometimes get in the way.
I would like to delete them unless someone objects very loudly.

Yep, you are correct, we still have the tags.

release tags. Release tags will always stay there. Branches can always
be created from the last release tag should this ever become necessary.

I think it is fair to make this announcement in the release notes and
mailing lists in the next releases for core and client and list explicitly
which branches will be/are deleted.
