Well, nothing wrong with asking here.  You might get a better,
quicker, or more cogent reply from the ports@ list, though.

That said, did you look here?

ftp> pwd
Remote directory: /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/All
ftp> ls firefox-3.6*
229 Entering Extended Passive Mode (|||24438|).
150 Here comes the directory listing.
-rw-r--r--    1 110      1002     19611520 Feb 18 06:51 firefox-3.6,1.tbz
226 Directory send OK.

Perhaps it's been there a week already?  Not sure, myself,
but it kind of appears that way.
