Packages that have survived "ok" for some time are copied from unstable to woody (also known as "testing").

If you know a package's source, you can fetch everything (source and binaries built from that) easily from the pool. debian/pool/main/s/slang/ is slang's directory, for example. You can't check whether something is "in" a distribution by looking at directories anymore. The Package files are the only source of this information (or use <URL:http://packages.debian.org/>) -- Robbe
