But in this particular instance, it is only a lack of interest to backport security fixes (well, we tried it over stretch release period but it turned out to be too complex and I lack expertise in ruby). If there are people interested to backport security fixes over stable release period, we could do it still. While the concern about "open core" is real, this is not the consequence of it being an "open core" project.
