Description

Looking at https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/metadata/com.nextcloud.talk2.yml#L612 we currently don't grab RCs for F-Droid to publish. So I think the regex needs a closer look and maybe looping in @tobiasKaminsky since I vaguely remember that stable and rc/beta can somehow be distinguished.

Start with metadata/com.nextcloud.talk2.yml at the referenced line 612 and inspect the release regex and surrounding metadata. Verify how F-Droid distinguishes stable, RC, and beta releases; done means eligible release candidates are published without disrupting stable releases.
