Who is the target audience of release numbers? If it is third-party wikis,
they will probably only care about release branches (REL1_26 etc) and you
don't have to do anything about that (except backporting fixes for
especially nasty bugs), extension branches get split automatically whenever
there is a new MediaWiki release.

On the topic of +2 vs. accepting tasks in Scrum, synchronizing the scrum
schedule with the release process (so that sprints start on Tuesday and end
on Monday) reduces the pain. Although if you use two-week sprints that's
probably less useful.
