Firefox -> Help -> About Firefox does not contiain a link to the release notes, http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/ doesn't link to them,http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/ no link here either, not even here http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html and lastly I don't think the new Startup page after installing/upgrading firefox includes it either.

I had to google for them and even then google only returned a result for the 6.0 notes and I had to manually change the URL to reach the 6.0.1 notes.


My question is thus simple, why since I think Firefox 4, have you chosen to make it notably harder to find release notes? And why are release notes not available immediately after the release of an update sometimes?
