RE: Ssh not upgraded when doing apt-get upgrade?
When woody goes stable, though, I want to move on to whatever "testing"
is at that point. That's why I had been using "testing" in my
sources.list rather than explicitly saying "woody"; I thought it would
make it easier to stay current. Is it better to explicitly state
"woody" in your sources.list, and then change it when woody is no longer
the name for testing? Thanks.

You should probably use 'woody', not 'testing'. After all, testing
doesn't normally get security updates. Once woody becomes stable, you
are still going to want them. Specifiying the distribution by name will
get you the updated packages for as long as the security team supports
that version.
