Incubating PMC rejecting releases should not be a problem for the version 
numbering as we will bring forward RCs so we could have RC1 RC2 RC3 RC4 on the 
same version until the last RC is voted and released that’s why the “RC1” 
string should not be part of the file/archive and is part of the parent 
folder/directory

So an example we could have 
dev/0.1.0-RC1/openwhisk-0.1.0.tgz
dev/0.1.0-RC2/openwhisk-0.1.0.tgz
dev/0.1.0-RC3/openwhisk-0.1.0.tgz

Once the last RC approved and voted by IPM PMC archive gets move to dist 

dist/incubator/openwhisk/0.1.0/openwhisk-0.1.0.tgz
