I don't see real value in keeping around all of the old release branches. If we were continuing to do releases in the 2.4.x series, for example, the 2.4 branch would have a clear purpose. We can check out release tags to run tests or do other work with a specific release. Can anyone point to a clear purpose for keeping around the old release branches?
In case we do want to keep open the possibility of creating a patch release from an old minor release, we could keep around two release branches. My motivation for cleaning up old release branches is that I like to run `git branch -avv` and the output is a bit ridiculous if you have a couple remotes. I'm +1 on getting rid of old release branches (keeping around the latest two if others think that is a good idea). If there is a compelling reason to keep around older branches, I'm open to changing my opinion.
