There are people maintaining so called LTS updates for both Squeeze and Wheezy.

It all depends on what we want to promise to the users. Maybe the
sensible policy would be to support the two latest Debian releases? Or
just the latest Debian release + 6 months of transition between
versions?

Anyway I think that at least squeeze builds are ok to drop and move
all those resources into Jessie builds and QA.
