According to wildfly developers:
==== http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/wildfly-dev/2015-August/004375.html
WildFly is a community driven project and is moving fast, WildFly 10
is going to be released on October and AFAIK there is no formal
support for a released version (ex.: 8.x) after the new version comes
out (ex.: 9.x) there will be probably a few patches or backports to an
earlier version but to stay really "supported" you must use the last
available version.
All WildFly versions (8.x, 9.x, 10.x) comply with the Java EE 7
specification, so if you stick to the standard then your app should
run without problems in a later version.
If you really need support or a formal end-of-life, then you must
acquire a JBoss EAP subscription. For the moment there is only
available JBoss EAP 6 wich comply with the Java EE 6 specification,
but JBoss EAP 7 is on the works :-)
Regards.

That means without question wildfly80 and wildfly81 are the equivalent of
EOL/unsupported.
Since Wildfly90 is the current version, then conceivably wildfly82 could
receive some updates.
What is the plan for wildfly? becuase I do not want to see every release get
it's own port.
I think wildfly80 and 81 should be deprecated and removed. As soon as
wildfly100 is released, then wildfly82 should be deprecated and removed.
Ideally there should only be two wildfly ports: the current and the upcoming.
At the very most three: current, previous and upcoming.
Five is way too much IMO
