Hi Lukas,

Well I guess we'd have "rel/x.x" branches for every version we will be 
providing bugfixes for and have a "released" which will always point to the 
highest release tag.

Perhaps going to "release/x.y" (two digit) for branch names and "release/x.y.z" 
(three digit) for release tags and "release" as replacement for "master"?

    +1 for rekeased branch so this branch indicates that this is the current
    release branch. For specific versions we have the rel/0.7
