When woody is released, it will become "stable". At that point there will be a new "testing" (as yet unnamed), which will initially be identical to woody but will quickly start to receive packages from unstable. "sid" will remain "unstable" and always will. If you want to run "testing" but not "unstable", you should specify "testing" in your apt sources.list. If you currently specify "woody" you will switch from testing to stable when woody is released, and you will fall off the edge of the world when it is replaced by the next release. > Is woody likely to become 'stable' soon?
