*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.
