Debian Woody is version 3.0 and was released in 2002 if memory serves. 
Debian Etch is Debian 4.0 and is two releases later (Debian 3.1 aka Sarge 
was released in-between).  I can't remember exactly when Etch was released 
but it was either this year or late last.

I'd recommend using Etch unless you've got an extremely good reason not to, 
and then use Sarge unless you need something bleeding edge.

I'm curious as to why you're asking.
