Certainly true. There is a slight difference tough:

MJT is the Debian maintainer, the packages in his repos are compiled of 
the official Debian salsa source and are the same packages as you find 
in sid and experimental. It is just that there is a delay before they 
appear in backports. If you want to avoid that delay his repos are the 
place to be :-)

If, for whatever reason, the repos disappear you can simply point your 
sources.list back to backports and get the same packages there.
