I'd go both ways, really.  An RC is a Release Candidate, and it makes
sense for 2.2rc to precent 2.2 (release).  But if the release is going
to be 2.2.0, the rc should be for 2.2.0.

The betas (which I'd call more alphas or dev snapshots, really) can
make more sense as 2.2's, since they're leading to the 2.2 series as a
whole.
