I'm not sure how other projects do it, but I'm guessing the process of
publishing a release candidate for public consumption is different
from a proper final release... From what I understand, release
candidates published to
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/kie/10.0.0-rc1, if
approved, need to be the exact same artifacts as the ones that will
compose the final release. For this reason, we can't have "release
candidate" artifacts with the `-rcX` prefix as their version, since
they need to be, bit by bit, equal to the release itself.

When one of our release candidates is approved both by us and the
IPMC, the process of publishing it as a final release will be creating
a tag `10.0.0` pointing to the exact same commit as the `10.0.0-rcX`
tag. Same is true for the artifacts. Our release publishing automation
will download from
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/kie/10.0.0-rc1/ and
push to whatever places each artifact is released to (E.g., NPM,
DockerHub, OperatorHub, VS Code Marketplace, Chrome Web Store etc).
