The reality is that Trisquel relies on the Ubuntu base for the security and general package updates. It is hard enough for Trisquel to be maintained with the current setup and if the Trisquel team were to go to Debian and take the update pack route like with Linux Mint Debian, the workload would triple.

The Natty files are still on the server, but are stagnant. Also, batty is no longer listed on their packages pages. For example: http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/gcc
