Right.  It should show up later tonight (US times).  I don't remember 
exactly when the sync is performed, but it's late in the day (and hasn't 
happened since the release early this morning).

That said, any user should be using the -fixes branch, as Kenni 
suggested.  That way, you will pull any bug fixes we make available.  
The tarballs are primarily useful for packagers to use.

Note, also, you can download a tarball of an "export" of the repo from 
github (if, say, you don't have git tools installed) at 
https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/tree/fixes/0.25 , and then select the 
"Zip" link.
