* There have been five updates so far:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2014/06/threads.html
3/5 have been released by existing security team members and we've always
stated that we help to get this started, but it needs to be self-hosting
service
* Noone has taken care of the linux-2.6 update, although all the patches
have been prepared and Carlos has made various tests
* Noone is taking care of updating lts-needed.txt or other triage
So, from my view it's fairly obvious that Debian LTS will only be sustainable
if there's an ongoing base of sponsored work.

That is true, that should be added.
