Seems like there's plenty of volunteering in the CentOS fork community. Why not put that wood behind Debian LTS arrow? Seems like a much better idea than continue trying to build on an unreliable partner like Red Hat.

But the work is mostly to repackage RHEL patches. To support Debian LTS for longer you have to do all the backports which is obviously much more work.
