No - Squeeze is testing, Sid is unstable. Very much not the same thing. Squeeze is nearly ready for release, and so is pretty stable. The progression is: Unstable - Sid (always) Testing - currently Squeeze. Soon to be Wheezy (the present, Sid) Stable - Lenny now. Soon to be Squeezy. Old Stable - Etch, but soon to be Lenny.
