Perhaps you failed to notice that firefox3 final would not be released 
before Hardy final, and that FF3 should be upgraded accordingly when it 
gets released. On a second notice, why would you believe FF3 beta would 
be dropped in HardyH final, if it was included in the HH-beta?

Also note, as I and others mentioned, that you were wrong when you said 
the beta was included *instead* of the stable, so this is actually a 
non-issue. 

PS: I am also pretty sure, even though I've not looked into it, that this 
decision is documented somewhere either in ubuntu's website, or the 
devel-* mailing list archives. If you're interested in this information, 
I suggest you look at those places first.
