Ok :-)
The three Releases
- Stable - 'Woody' - was the cowboy
The "stable" distribution contains the latest officially released distribution of Debian.
This is the production release of Debian, the one which we primarily recommend using.
The current "stable" distribution of Debian GNU/Linux is version 3.0r4, codenamed woody. It was released on January 1st, 2005.
- Testing - 'Sarge' - was the sergeant of the Green Plastic Army Men
The "testing" distribution contains packages that haven't been accepted into a "stable" release yet, but they are in the queue for that. The main advantage of using this distribution is that it has more recent versions of software, and the main disadvantage is that it's not completely tested and has no official support from Debian security team.
- Unstable - 'Sid' - was the boy next door who destroyed toys
