As mentioned in various places on the forums [1][2] and mailing list
[3], Firefox 1.5 is in the Rawhide (development) tree, which you have
the option of enabling if you want to help test, debug, and develop
Fedora Core further[4]. (Please note that you should probably not do
this on a production box, as it can potentially be *very* unstable,
though there are those who use it as their primary system.)

So How long would it take in test ?

I'll second Greg's suggestion. I unpacked the tarball from
mozilla.org/firefox into /usr/local and used DESKTOP -> PREFERENCES -> MORE
PREFERENCES -> PREFERRED APPLICATIONS to change the default browser from
"firefox" to "/usr/local/firefox/firefox %s". That's all it took.
I'll third it except I install to my home directory and add the manually
installed firefox directory to the front of my $PATH in ~/.bashrc. Adding to
the path allows me to easily run the newer firefox from the commandline.
It was part of a yum update for me on FC4.
