Hi
Unless you really know what you are doing this is not advised - problems
will arise with broken dependancies etc. However, testing (sarge) is
soon to become stable and replace woody. Time estimates are unclear
currently but if you keep an eye on debian-announce you should see some
news in the next couple of weeks (according to Colin W)
Other than that a full reinstall is recommended but it may be worth
saving some of your more critical conf files etc. Personally, I've
usually found a reinstall educational and an opportunity to make better
choices when setting up the system.
Good luck ;)
