Release candidates are generated manually as deemed necessary and go to /pub/releases/<ver>/<rcnum> directory.
200xyyzz are just automatically built "current" snapshots without any guarantee of being even bootable whatsoever. Instead they are generated every 3 days (and soon to be generated every day).
RC are good for use (I hope so), snapshots are good for testing new stuff.
