Of course.

Here's an example / generalization of cadence that you might see with an
even/odd release stream:

fixes/enhancements to stable that don't break API
    - version change: x.(even).z -> x.(even).(z+1)  eg, 2.0.0 -> 2.0.1
    - occur as needed, hopefully/presumably not often

monthly cadence for developers in dev stream
    - version change: x.(odd).z -> x.(odd).(z+1)  eg, 2.1.3 -> 2.1.4
    - every 4 weeks, or whatever

major release
    - version change: x.(odd).z -> x.(odd+1).0  eg, 2.1.42 -> 2.2.0
    - every so many months?

Presumably the version numbers have matching branches/tags in git, as
appropriate, for both even and odd releases.  Would be interesting to see
exactly how node does that (perusing their branches/tags right now ...)
