Yes.

The odd/even convention was dropped back when we converted to a Git
branchy workflow by commit v2.8.2~105^2~4 (New version scheme to support
branchy workflow, 2010-04-23):

It's just that "2.8" essentially became the "major" version so
2.8.x have been the minor releases, including odd 'x' values.
