The Aurora and Beta channel updates are released a few days after the stable channel update. See the text on https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar - or for even more details see http://blog.mozilla.com/channels/2011/05/11/merge-dates-vs-r...

"Code is not always released to users on the same day as the branch migration. The release to users may be a few days later, to allow for manual testing and sign-off."

I think this is confusing. Either you synch the switch (i.e. when you release the "release" version to users you release the "beta" too), or it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
