Sounds good, though I believe that the extension packages can be
uploaded to sid now (see the TODO in 

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17WvGt5oedk2qsekJbPl-CLyhrs8FIaFDobinMMMP5p8/edit#gid=0

)

Interesting question. We want to remove RT4 from testing before the
next release. But I imagine there will be users who will benefit from
a few more uploads of RT4 to unstable in the meantime, so I'd say yes.
Do you have cycles/interest in doing that? If not I can probably step
in.

>From https://docs.bestpractical.com/release-notes/rt/4.4.5 I see
that there's also a security vulnerability (username enumeration through
timing side-channel attack) fixed in 4.4.5. I'll file a separate bug about
that now.

Cheers
Dominic
