That clarifies the process, thanks. I can't even ask why it takes so long, clearly some packages have dependencies and the whole collection needs to be updated at once (or from the bottom up, which isn't really easier). And the signing steps also change distribution to a more batch process.

So it's as real time as it can be, without significant effort. Besides, it gives up something to look forward to. ;-)

Things will probably improve this dev cycle. There is a proposal to auto
sign stuff out of koji. This removes one roadblock.

Probably we would be looking at packages outside of a key set (another
proposal is for defining that set) getting into the updates or updates-testing
repo within a day. Good mirrors should have that updated within another day,
in their copy.

I appreciate the info, but my point was that it works fast enough now, improvements enjoyed and appreciated, but not requested (by me, anyway). If I read about something a day before I get it, that doesn't spoil my day.

 Even purely technical things can appear to be magic, if the documentation is
obscure enough. For example, PulseAudio is configured by dancing naked around a
fire at midnight, shaking a rattle with one hand and a LISP manual with the
other, while reciting the GNU manifesto in hexadecimal. The documentation fails
to note that you must circle the fire counter-clockwise in the southern
hemisphere.
