No, it is that some packages were removed from testing during the last
transition, as their transitioned versions were not ready to move from
unstable to testing, and would therefore either have blocked the whole
transition, or been uninstallable. So instead, they were removed, and will
stay out of testing until the package version in unstable is sufficiently
bug-free to move back into testing, and has all its dependencies satisfied,
built on all architectures, etc.
Since another transition has now started, again blocking packages from
moving from unstable to testing, it probably won't be until after the
current transition is over that testing will be more or less complete
again.
