CR=candidate for release The use of the CR (Candidate Release) qualifier is for releases that we anticipate can be the GA release, but we need the community to help validate the release. Again, there is an optional numeric qualifier that can be added if there is a need for multiple CR releases. Finally, the use of the Final qualifier is for completed releases for the community.
