Yes.  But the original question was a request for an estimation of
when 2.6.20 would make it into a Debian release.  Thus, the appropriate
reply is "probably never."  At some point, 2.6.20 should end up in
unstable/testing, but there is no guarantee as 2.6.21 might come out by
the time of release or shortly thereafter.  In which case, the kernel
team might not want to waste their time on 2.6.20 and move straight to
2.6.21.
