Would it be possible to setup bullseye in the ELTS infrastructure for low-priority updates right now, the same way jessie, stretch and buster are already there? The simplest setup would be that contributors upload there, and the batch-release would consist of someone at Freexian manually uploading the already signed source packages from there to LTS. More fancy would be a working migrate command that migrates to LTS. Announcement texts for the next low-priority batch-release could be stored in git or some wiki. As a bonus, this could also give us autopkgtest testing for triggered packages. If that's available, I would even upload high-priority fixes there first for getting the test results. cu Adrian
