Now that `vmware.vmware_rest` 4.9.0 is out and [doesn’t depend on cloud.common anymore](https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/repo/published/vmware/vmware_rest/dependencies/?version=4.9.0), how do you think we should proceed?

I guess the next release will include `vmware.vmware_rest` 4.9.0 and drop `cloud.common`, but should it be another beta or do we want to go straight to rc1?
