Why not?
I don't recall you paying for them to make the snapshot ISOs, so they get made 
when they can. Maybe if you provided some constructive support about it (eg 
hardware, money, bandwidth) they'd be able to produce them more consistently.

I think your attitude stinks, however you should try a 5.3 release and then 
upgrade to -current.

Also, chewing out the main ports manager is really demonstrative of your lack 
of clue.
