C = BC changes and additions. C = BC changes and additions.
A.B.CrcD Release candidates
------------------
A.B.C-rc
A.B.C-rc2
This is when we want to do a release candidate. RC number increments till we're getting a stable release with no
critical bugs and backwards incompatibility reports.
Alphas and betas
----------------
A.B.C-alpha
A.B.C-alpha2
Alphas are unstable versions where significant bugs may and probably do exist. API isn't fixed yet and may be changed
significantly. `alpha2` etc. may or may not be released based on overall stability of code and API.
A.B.C-beta
A.B.C-beta2
This is when we want to release release candidate. D is the RC number. Starts with 1 and increments till we're getting a stable release with no critical bugs and BC incompatibility reports. Beta is more or less stable with less bugs and API instability than alphas. There still could be changes in API but
\ No newline at end of file there should be a significant reason for it.
