Official unrealtournament.com site is usually the last place to inform about
a new patch. As far as I know info about a new patch and downloads are sent
to many mirror sites. This might be to spread the traffic so Ataris servers
don't get overloaded. Also it has been speculated that Atari (distributor)
has been a bit slow updating the site after it was announced that Midway
will be the distributor for Epics (developer) new titles.
Anyway, the patch is official even though there's no mention about it in the
official web server. I know, that's a bit weird, but it's the way how it
works with UT2k4. There's usually no need to rush to update UT2k4 as AntiTCC
and Safegame also need to be updated to accept the updated UT2k4 client
files and it takes time until all servers are updated. If you have updated
and the server haven't and it's running old antitcc then it will kick you
out. I updated the game yesterday and had no problems to play on any
servers, though.

AFAIK they postpone posting on unrealtournament.com until all the
mirrors have the file.
