Right, that's what's going on.  I'm currently tracking "testing" in my
sources.list, which has now gone on to "stretch".  I honestly get a
little confused sometimes with how apt deals with lots of repos.  My gut
feeling is that I wouldn't hurt anything by adding "stable" alongside
"testing", that I would still track the latest available upon 'upgrade'
commands, so I think I'll try that.
