I expect because they've decided not to put beta versions on Aminet. Since
version 1.2, only beta version have been available (1.3 and now 1.4). Once 2.0
is complete (1.4b is the beta name of 2.0) I expect it'll be on Aminet.

Also, perhaps you should try an off-peak time to connect to the AMosaic site -
I'm on a 14k4 modem link and it takes minutes not hours to get !
