Following a period of testing, these packages will become available on the beta, esr, and release branches of Firefox.
I read that, but I don't know if that means they will publish stable releases via the same repository. That just sounds like the packages themselves will end up being in those channels (which makes sense, nightly becomes beta, which becomes a release, which ends up as esr). It doesn't necessarily mean this apt repository will be a release channel itself.
Would to see them publish stable releases via this apt repository as well.
Looks like that will happen later. From Mozilla's original article:

That said, there is the Mozilla Team PPA.
Ah yes good point. Fingers crossed.
Brilliant
