Help Linus decide what to call the next kernel

Help Linus decide what to call the next kernel

It should be possible to use the date of the rc1 tag. That's what good programmers do - grab the resource when you need it. Who cares if the release date doesn't match the version. The stable series would still use the same kernel version plus serial number. So, rc1 released in March 2015 would be v15.03, the corresponding released kernel released in May 2015 would still be v15.03, the stable series would be v15.03.1, v15.03.2 etc even if they are released in August 2015, January 2016 etc.
