They are not actively supporting 11.4 (means not actively searching for
security issues and patching them), but on the other hand, they are
still providing some updates, and people are still using it. It is not
fully dead.
IMHO, you could stop building it, but allow downloading of the current
packages from somewhere. Maybe that's what you mean with "mirrors"?
