Please release Firefox 9.0.1 for Natty and Oneric

Asked by Teg

I have Firefox 9.0.1 installed on another computer through the mozilla-team PPA, yet the official Natty and Oneric repositories are missing it still. Please try to release it soon because it has been taking forever.

Two problems:

1. Firefox is on a rapid release cycle so timing is very important in releasing. This release is already like 2 weeks behind.
2. The Mozilla Stable PPA had the 9 series a day or so after it was released for Lucid. Why is it that older releases get it yet the newer ones do not?

Can you help with this problem?
