I mean someone has to upload them to that site before they can be made into MR ebooks. I don't know myself how long it takes to get such a file on their system.
Or hopefully an enthusiastic and talented volunteer has created the files already in anticipation of the day when they get the "go" signal and just push the upload button.

Either way, I will be happy whenever they are released.
