No, we should just release. Supporting woody for security updates is no
easier (in terms of necessary infrastructure upgrades) than releasing it
as stable, and the latter is much preferable now.
Supporting security updates for testing is good in principle, that's
true. However, nobody with the necessary skills has yet had the time to
volunteer to manage it.
