Not true. A unstable package may be moved to testing after 2 days! From http://www.debian.org/devel/testing : 1. It must have been in unstable for 10, 5 or 2 days, depending on the urgency of the upload; 2. It must be compiled and up to date on all architectures it has previously been compiled for in unstable; 3. It must have fewer release-critical bugs than, or the same number as, the version currently in "testing" (see below for more information); 4. All of its dependencies must either be satisfiable by packages already in "testing", or be satisfiable by the group of packages which are going to be installed at the same time; 5. The operation of installing the package into "testing" must not break any packages currently in "testing".
