Hi Andy,
You are talking about freeze timeline and policies.
Please look at this document for that:
https://release.debian.org/buster/freeze_policy.html
The time and date is defined and any programmer can planning for it.
I check the LTS versions of KDE and what can i see Debian choose is v5.14,
that is not the LTS version.
How ever Debian could choose v5.12 LTS or even v5.8 LTS for bug fixes and
security issues.
I think Debian should be change the approach for more KDE Desktop
stability
as for the kernel has taken this approach.
If Debian keeps years-old KDE in unstable I'll stop using it, tbh.
I don't know where this information is coming from, but 5.19.5 is in testing
right now. Experimental has 5.20 and there's talk of getting 5.20.5 in time
for the freeze, so we'll probably end up with some iteration of 5.20 in stable
if I had to take a stab at it. I cannot imagine a world where Debian's KDE
team puts in all the work to get these newer versions in, just to roll back to
something that is older than what is in current stable. Current stable
(Buster) uses 5.14! So rest easy, there's no way we're going to have 5.12 or
5.8 in stable, it's just not a thing.
