i do not remember as well, but 

archlinux-YYYY.MM-REL-TYPE-ARCH.iso

where TYPE is core/ftp/cd/dvd/full/...
(core=only core, ftp=ftpinstall, cd=max690MB, dvd=max4.6GB, 
full=everything we have)

speaking about: can we also make a standard about how the REL will 
increase?

dev.{1...} 		for internal (dev only releases, non-public)
testing.{1...} 		for testing isos (public)
1 			for the release
{2..x} 			for bugfixes, increasing in real numbers
so that the end user sees only REL as real number, whereas testers and 
devs (people more involved and less PR-important) releases are marked 
clearly.
