Good news, we have news from the pkgbeta.FreeBSD.org server:

pkg bootstrap is being restored. Stay tuned.

The site went down shortly after I wrote my pkgng FreeBSD Handbook post, ironically enough. I was going to post in the newsgroups asking what was up, but now we have news.

UPDATE: We now have a new message.

Currently this site only contains pkg bootstrap files!
