Per PEP 386, the standard scheme is ‘c’, although ‘rc’ is acceptable as well.

We can take this opportunity to change the naming scheme to what Python 3 
generates by default. We just have to be careful not to generate releases with 
Python 2 from now on. I suggest to add something in the release checklist 
(assuming you still follow it when making releases, perhaps you know it by 
heart by now).
