NO?
I think he has it right eventhough he says it a bit oddly..

-current always moves forwards.
every so often a 'branch' is made that is eventually made into a release..
What I'm not sure of myself, is whether -stable
derives from -current, or from a previous (unstable?) release.
(because we are effectively doing both at the moment)
