8.2, 8.1, and 8.0 were branched off the x.y.0 release tag.  7.4 was branched 
at rc1, 7.3 was branched at beta4, 7.2 was branched at final release, 7.1 was 
branched at 7.1.1.  So no. :-)

Personally, I don't agree with following this endless release cycle with an 
additional indefinite waiting period.
