just for my understanding, dont we need to vote on the beta as well as
the
release. We send the beta out to general public, that would normally
require a vote (might be a fast one).

I wouldn't make a beta as a RC. After a Beta you have normaly several
showstopers to fix. I recall, RC = Release Candidate wich means, that we
assume the build is ready for release. Beta... wait two or tree weeks
fix showstoppers, and then a RC. And the important tests are not the one
in the RC, the important tests are at the build befor RC. Else we make
the same mess as in the 4.0.0.

RC means (at least for me) that you are done with that what you planned for the coming release. At the moment we can nearly ready for the Beta Release. So making a RC to get it out.

Later in the calendar we do another RC when we think 4.1.0 is ready for public use as final release.

You can name different release builds as RC - depending on what you want to archive with them - which is more or less only internally relevant. I think this is what Juergen wanted to express.
