My statement was influenced by the OpenStack 2020 EOL in jessie:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/debian-security-support/-/merge_requests/3
"Jessie lost support fom upstream just a few weeks after the release."
(https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts/2015/11/msg00024.html)
based on a 2015 conversation with zigo, which evidently is obsolete :)

Thanks for all your inputs. We would certainly welcome instructions
on how to setup a testing OpenStack environment for LTS updates, which
could be documented at https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/TestSuites
Is that what you offered?

As pochu mentioned, we normally support packages in LTS unless there's
a solid reason /not/ to, and reading this conversation we appear to be
in capacity of supporting OpenStack Rocky packages in buster LTS.
