There are various points in the life cycle of a debian package:
1) the maintainers machine (or buildd)
2) incoming
3) unstable, testing-proposed-updates,stable-proposed-updates (and the
security related ones), volitile and experimental
4)testing
5)stable

incoming, experimental, testing-proposed-updates,
stable-proposed-updates. volitile are not distrabutions. incoming,
testing-proposed-updates, stable-proposed-updates are staging areas.
incoming is the location where a packages goes before it becomes part of
the official repositories (unstable,testing,stable).
