I cannot follow. What am I supported to do with 2.4-RC2? I cannot supply this to Maven Release Plugin otherwise it will bein the POM and in the repo. This is already on master and shouldn't appear again: https://github.com/apache/velocity-engine/commit/5d9e48ca0f1776300f1cf07199eb79c34dbe9cb7

Git tag and version in POM have to be consistent. I don't see how this can be achieved. Moreover, that version needs to land as source release zip on ASF dist area. The zip content cannot be x-RCy.

I guess I miss here something as well.
