Rocky is still in the Maintained phase:


https://releases.openstack.org/#release-series


Older stable branches are in extended maintenance, so if the plan is to
not support them anymore, that needs to be declared, with six months
allowed for someone else to have a window to offer to continue providing
that extended maintenance:


https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/stable-branches.html#maintenance-phases


After the six months, if no one offers to maintain the code, it can then
be marked as EOL.
