VC stands for 'voting candidate'. The problem with RC is that it's an overloaded concept -- a release candidate in Apache is something different to a release candidate in the NetBeans world.
There's been lots of discussions around this on the 'dev' mailing list -- suffice it to say, if you're interested in these kinds of topics, you should be on the 'dev' mailing list, the 'users' mailing list is simply for questions and answers on the functionality of NetBeans, e.g., 'how do I change the font size in the editor?' type of questions.
