https://pkg.freebsd.org has a link to:

• FreeBSD:13:powerpc64 ( https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD%3A13%3Apowerpc64 )

There the dates on things indicate that quarterly is newer
than latest. meta.txz is reported as having date/time:

2021-May-20 07:07

(as seen in the time zone I'm in).

https://pkg-status.freebsd.org shows that jail 130powerpc64 started
building on Tue, 18 May 2021 21:01:05 GMT and reached stopped:done:
status, taking an elapsed time of 34:06:48 . It also reports that
the server was: pylon .

But the linked page:

https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/builds/default:quarterly:130powerpc64:cdf5bfe36fe5:pylon

reports only 1976 ports built of the only 4340 that were queued
for that specific build.

There was another jail that built far more: 130releng-powerpc64 is
indicated to have built 23522 of the 30700 queued. It is listed
as started on Sun, 04 Apr 2021 13:48:51 GMT, having reached a
status of stopped:crashed:, with an elapsed time of 73:28:43 .
Also pylon.

It appears that http://pylon.nyi.freebsd.org is not currently
accessible. This limits what can be investigated.

I would guess that:

https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:13:powerpc64/quarterly/packagesite.txz

would give a clue what should be accessible via quarterly.
It is listed as being 6058988 Bytes in size.
