is there any mechanism how to speed up release of critical security

For instance Firefox packages are released *week* after official Mozilla
release which is really bad.

Any idea here?
The "update stability policies" enforced by Bodhi simply need to be
repealed. This problem simply did not exist when maintainers were still
trusted to be able to do their job.
Or maybe we should modify them for urgent security updates rather than
repeal them totally.  We certainly have delays with Java security
updates on Fedora.  Something needs to be done, but I'm not sure
exactly what.

I worked with security updates for Mandriva Linux between 2009 and 2015.

I'm open for a job offer on that topic ;)
