Is a suffix necessary? Why not just stick with what ever, rc1, beta, etc As I see it, if you do any tag that a vote fails on. Why not withdraw that tag entirely. If the vote passes, the tag remains. Thus a -rc1 would be all that is needed for a passed vote.
For example, Jetty just had a 9.4.11.v20180521 tag. For what ever reason that was withdrawn and removed. https://github.com/eclipse/jetty.project/releases I think a similar approach is clearer to all and does not require additional suffixes. -- William L. Thomson Jr.
