I started using Linux (and Debian) a couple months after Woody "came 
out."  Was woody due "any day now" for a year like this?

For what it's worth Microsoft goes into feature freeze about a year 
before an OS ships.  They fork the kernel then.  About the only thing 
that changes after that is the icons and desktop colors.
