I can only comment on the OpenJDK 11 backport in Stretch since I'm the
one who uploaded it last month. Debian 9 "Stretch" is far from being
usable with Java 11 (we poured a lot of work into Debian 10 to make this
possible) and this backport can only be reasonably seen as a technology
preview aimed at gathering feedback.

I intend to update it to a more recent version, but by policy the
packages backported to the stable release cannot have a more recent
version than the one in the testing repository (the packages staged for
the next stable release). So as soon as an updated version transitions
to testing (11.0.3+1 currently as you pointed out) I'll upload a new
backport.

I agree that we should preferably only upload the GA tags (or newers if
there are fixes worth picking) to avoid diverging too much with the
upstream releases.
