Looks to me like someones been doing some editing and not documenting
it. Perhaps that means Etch is _very_ close.
According to the Debian Reference:
Currently, `stable/' is a symbolic link to `sarge/', and `testing/' is
a symbolic link to `etch/'. This means that `Sarge' is the current
stable distribution and `Etch' is the current testing distribution.
Something looks fishy to me...
