I thought it had, but now that you're pointing out that e-mail, it may not
have. The NAIP_ALL imagery was created by someone who went and found the
latest available NAIP imagery by hand as of the end of last year. Since he
used raw imagery directly from the states (rather than a WMS) it is quite up
to date.

The link I sent in your email was indeed a tiled cache of the USGS WMS and
they didn't always ingest the newest stuff.
