It won't break. However, with Etch frozen, testing hasn't been getting
an infusion of stuff from Sid that is otherwise ready for testing. Once
Etch is stable, AIUI, testing (Lenny) will start to receive the backlog
from Sid. So there will be burst of activity, if you will, just after
Etch goes stable.

Well after changing all of the lines in my sources.list from etch to
