If you look at the actual spec wording, you'll see that "-rc1" is fine too. Their example says "-rc.1", but if you read the rules then "-rc1" is as OK as "-rc.1", the only difference being that the former is *one* dot separated identifier, and the latter are *two* dot separated identifiers, but both are OK according to the spec.
