David: there's a lot of ways to load up the testing version -- I'm not sure if 
anyone's posted a comprehensive set of directions, but here's one thing you can 
do:
 - download the "xxx-linux.tar.bz2" file from either of the links above
 - extract it to /opt/firefox
 - create a symbolic link called "firefox-test" in /usr/bin pointing to 
/opt/firefox/firefox
 - test the new version by running "firefox-test" rather than "firefox"
(note that this will use your existing profile by default -- if you don't want 
that, us the "-ProfileManager" command-line option to create a new  profile)
(note that you can't have two copies of firefox running at the same time, 
unless you (a) use different profiles and (b) use the "-no-remote" command-line 
option)

If that doesn't make sense, feel free to visit #firefox or #developers
on irc.mozilla.org, or #ubuntu-mozillateam on irc.freenode.net, and ask
for help there.  (It's probably best not to allocate any more of this
bug-page to "how to test nightly versions of firefox", since it can get
a bit complicated and this bug-page is way too long already. :))
