Inquiry - is release team the constraint? Or to put it another way, what to you is "support" in terms of FreeBSD releases? As far as I am aware, if you stick on a RELENG_X_Y_Z_RELEASE tag then the most you get is security fixes. No new features, no new drivers, no bugfixes. So if I am interpreting things correctly, you are asking for security fixes to be ported to RELEASE tagged branches for longer? So is release team the contrained resource in your problem? I am not denying that *any* part of the FreeBSD team is not resource constrained, but I'm wondering if you're examining the correct area. Note: I am not up on the internals of modern FreeBSD release engineering and maintenance nor the relationship between "staff" functions, so I may be barking up the wrong telephone pole.
