I just checked my mirror and I was able to download the May File of 
planet.osm. from
  http://www.ostertag.name/osm/planet-2006-05-01.osm.bz2
This only holds the western hemisphere, but at least it newer than your april 
one.

I'm currently also uploading my current regional snapshots to
 http://www.ostertag.name/osm/current-snapshots/
(This will take some time, since my upload is only DSL)
This might help you to get more current Data for your Rendering.
These snapshot cover each an area 5-Degrees x 5-Degrees and I update them 
everytime I want to see a new version of an area inside gpsdrive. But I could 
try updating them on a regular base if needed. I personally would think of 
weekly or every three days.
If needed I also could try combining them to a large new planet-new.osm File
