I find: 4.18-rc 4.17-rc 4.16-rc 4.15-rc Do I need to go any further? Your 4.5 example also doesn't fully fit because at that time we were, in addition, still appending RC numbers (up to and including 4.9 as it looks). In 4.10 it then (intermediately) indeed was 4.10.0-rc. In 4.11 it became 4.11-rc. That said I wouldn't strictly mind the .0 infix. It's just that imo shorter is better, and the .0 doesn't really convey any useful information anymore now that we don't do / tag stable release RCs any longer. Jan
