Since many folks are already familiar with alpha, beta, and 
rc, I think it'd be good to stick with those as much as 
possible.

3.13.5 stable
3.14.0-beta6 (relp)
3.15.0-alpha3 (relp/tcp)

3.15.0-alpha4 (relp/tcp)

3.13.6 deprecated
3.14.0-rc1 (?) relp becoming stable
3.15.0-alpha4 (relp/tcp)

3.13.6 deprecated
3.14.0 stable relp
3.15.0-beta1 (relp/tcp) (3.15 now becomes beta)
3.16.0-alpha1 (tls) (the new alpha/dev branch)

In a nutshell:

alpha - very (b)leading edge dev release branch

beta - dev branch that has been out for awhile but still 
being worked on

rc - the beta/dev branch finally getting ready to be 
declared stable, pretty much bug-fix-only at this point

stable

deprecated
