deb822 would be better than CSV, I think something named dists/Releases or similar, with contents similar to Ubuntu's meta-release and parts of the Release files. It would need to indicate support periods so that apt can warn users when their security support is about to expire. Ubuntu might want to keep their release notes and upgrade tool links in it. Debian might want the release notes links but probably not the upgrade tool ones. It should probably be signed.
