Just found the answer in the original announcement 
(http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-pkg/2013-October/000107.html):

"Packages are built weekly from a snapshot of the Ports Collection every 
Wednesday morning 01:00 UTC. They typically will be available in the 
repository after a few days."
