I've upgraded 3 machines from potato to woody. But each time, there were packages that were only in sid (some gnome packages, for example). So I updated to sid and got everything updated and working and then backed my sources.list to just woody. I actually left in potato in case I need some old package, but I don't know if this is harmful in any way. My idea is to probably not update to sid again now that it's working. I did mine several weeks ago, and the state of sid can be broken at any given time. I may have been lucky. Perhaps now you can update to woody without having to get any packages from sid. ...RickM...
