well, I disagree ;)  The Debian security team has the policy to take any OpenJDK
update and backport that to stable release.   From my point of view, the Debian
release team is playing games with both the security team, and the OpenJDK
packagers to force something else, although it's unknown to me what they really
want to achieve, if further backports land in stable-security anyway.

I would like to avoid experimental, because it really doesn't get much testing.
 See the openjdk-11 updates as a stable release branch, and it's worth to check
these out early, because upstream doesn't test most Debian architectures.

no, at least not for the recent release:
