*All* Fedora updates must go to updates-testing first, and they must
receive at least 2 positive votes from the testing community to get
pushed stable, or else wait a week in updates-testing.
Firefox 23 was submitted for updates-testing mere hours after its
release and got +5 before it even made it to testing (from people
downloading it directly from the buildsystem), so it'll be pushed to
the stable repository in a few hours.
If you must have the absolute latest software on your computer at all
times, enable updates-testing:

Otherwise, it takes a couple days for us to test updates and get them
into the stable repository. A two-day turnaround on something that
updates as often as Firefox is perfectly reasonable.
Thank you for that. So tell me wwy the Xulrunner dependency for Firefox
came out right away, it alwyas does, and Firefox was delayed? As it
always is.
As I have said several times in this thread... I am *not complaining* I
was only asking why the delay.
