Sorry, I don't agree. apt-pinning is pretty worthless these days because too many packages depend on the new libc6 in unstable which makes it quite useless to get Sid-packages for Woody as you certainly don't want to import libc6-2.3.1-x from Sid to Woody. Okay, the Gnus package is an exception concerning this dependency. I prefer to get the source from Sid and do a backporting for Woody.
