Hi,
Indeed. I have Debian 10 and 11 builds working in the new buildbot
environment, but those are not yet "release-quality" packaging-vise.
Adding Debian 10 and 11 support to the current/old sbuild-based
buildsystem proved quite difficult due to stupid technical reasons.
I'm at the final phases of wrapping up release Debian packaging in
buildbot. Then we can switch over to it and get a lot better OS coverage.

You seem to miss my point. No, it is not out-of-date. It is fully supported
and receives bug and security updates by the Debian package maintainer for the
lifetime of the distribution. So far the OpenVPN maintainers over the last
10-15 years has been pretty good at keeping the OpenVPN package in a decent
shape.
That the Debian repositories does not do major updates when the OpenVPN
community releases one, is a Debian package policy. So you will miss new
features arriving in new major releases. But the packages in supported Debian
releases _are_ _up-to-date_ in regards to latest security and bug fixes. And
this is what makes Debian releases far more stable than many other more
bleeding edge distributions.
Indeed. When I add new distro support (e.g. Debian 11) to our packages I take
the upstream (Debian project) control files etc. and use them as a basis for
ours. In this process I very often have to disable several Debian patches
because they are the same patches that we've already released in our own minor
releases.
So yes, Debian is keeping their packages updated with (a subset of our) patches
