The following are the version settings in the releasing step: 
1. The version in sources and binaries to be such as: 5.0.0-beta
2. The tag in Github to be such as: 5.0.0-beta[RC1]

If the vote accepted then create a new tag named 5.0.0-beta or change the tag 
from 5.0.0-beta[RC1] to 5.0.0-beta.
If not, then 
        (1) update the sources and binaries, keep version unchanged.
        (2) delete the tag 5.0.0-beta[RC1]
        (3) create a new tag 5.0.0-beta[RC2] and revote.

So, If we do it as this steps. We can save the version number named 5.0.0-beta 
when vote not accept.
