Patch releases during the LTS part of Qt 5.15's life will be opensourced a
year after their release. With the exception of security fixes, and the entire
module of QtWebEngine, which will remain open throughout.
Don't know about the other postponed modules, I don't think any exceptions has
been made for them so far. You should direct such question at Qt management.
