Yes, it happened ages ago:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce-0010/msg00007.html
(implemented a month or two after that post)
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce-0012/msg00011.html
The 'testing' distribution hasn't lived up to its promise of speeding up
the release yet. However, getting it into an initial working condition
took a long time; I expect we'll see more benefits from it in woody+1,
as we can start out from a much better known-good state.
