Hi,

I'd like to propose the following change to make rolling release candidates slightly easier.

Instead of removing the -dev in ./Changes, we could change it to rc1, rc2...., etc.

The version would then be 'mod_perl-2.0.x-rcn' and the tarball would be
mod_perl-2.0.x-rcn.tar.gz which untars into mod_perl-2.0.x-rcn/.

+1, but see below

but where is the instruction to remove -rcX when doing the final release?
