To recap, milestone and release candidates are both useful at

released is what is supported.
I agree.
But are we confusing the issue of "what do we support?" and "how do
we do releases?" I was hoping just to get a branch/tag policy -
don't delete things so we have a pattern than a casual observer can
follow.
I was answering a bit of the drift and the original question. The
original issue, branch/tag policy hangs off of the descision of what do
we support. If we do not support a branch/tag then they get deleted.
Anyway, there's one other thing to think about - When do we want to
make a release that we are willing to support?
There's a simple answer to that, when we release v1.0.0. The hard
question to answer is what goes into 1.0.0?
