It may be true in general that packages arrive in Sid before Ubuntu (since an Ubuntu release starts with what's in Sid) but lets not forget that it was Ubuntu that packaged and included xorg 7.0 first, not Debian. And it's Ubuntu that has Gnome releases first (if you're into that kind of thing as I am).
