Epic programmer Steve Polge sent out an email to the UT2004Servers and UT2004Mods mailing lists with details of the latest beta patch for UT2004, which is now undergoing beta testing. This latest patch includes a relatively small number of changes, which brings about speculation that the official patch will be released fairly soon.
Here are the changes from the last beta patch, build 3336, to current build 3338:
Fix for clients unable to connect with "Incompatible Games Files"
message
Fixed Dom.xml for bot voice command in DDOM
Fixed F3/F8 stats now shows all players in list
Don't call destroyed powercore "green powercore" in scoreboard (after
round ends)
No log or console message when player enters or leaves team. public,
or local channels
