sid is always the latest and greatest followed by sarge then woody. Woody is know for it's outdatesd but stable pkgs sid is known for it's bleeding edge sometime unstable and broken pkgs and sarge is right in tehm idle. I think woody stilluses the 2.2 by default but you can get it with teh 2.4 kernel.
