Why wait?  Switch to Potato (2.2r3) now and then just upgrade when Woody goes
stable.  I recently upgraded my box to Woody and it went really smoothly.  I didn't
have a single package break!

P.S. in case you're wondering the upgrade process is simple.  Just:

    #apt-get update
    #apt-get dist-upgrade

That's it.  (You do have to edit sources.list if you want to go from stable to
unstable, but that's not needed for a vanilla upgrade ; )
