Here, I would argue that unless we have some written direction about
what release numbering scheme the incubating should use at The ASF,
then whatever a project decides to use is fine.
I wish the proposal made my Jukka includes this matter.

I believe Bill is complaining not about the venue,
but the choice of referring to this package as
a "release candidate" instead of simply dropping
the "RC" portion of the package name like other
projects typically do with approved candidates.
Ah, ok. Makes sense then.
My perception is that the Syncope guys are trying to cut a 1.0.0, instead
of going through many 0.x.0 before, therefore they are iterating on RC atm.
Indeed, yes.
It's pretty much semantic, IMHO.
In other ASF projects I've seen, the convention is to use -alpha1 or
-beta2 etc. to designate such stages.
Release Candidate (RC) has a specific meaning in the ASF, as it is
what is voted on before release.
So one would vote on
1.0.0-beta3-incubating-RCn
and a successful vote would result in the release of
1.0.0-beta3-incubating
A failed vote for RCn would normally result in trying again with RCn+1
to address the cause of the failure.
Thanks!
Do incubator peeps think it's a wrong approach?
I hope it's not: anyway, this RC3 should be the last one before actual
1.0.0-incubating.
Regards.
