IIRC Theymos verifies the releases himself before he updates the news, i.e. he checks the code, runs a gitian build, and checks the hashes with the released ones. However, given that the forum is currently under a DDoS attack, it is likely that Theymos has not updated the news yet as he is still dealing with the DDoS.

Edit: The new version is posted now on the news section.

Yeah I saw it. Reddit also takes a lot of extra time to update the "latest version" on the right of the page. The forum is now working great, theymos also fixed it. I wonder who is against all those DDoS attacks. Maybe bitcoin.com? im sure those guys are jealous that this is the biggest bitcoin forum on the internet.

Im talking about the "News: Latest stable version of Bitcoin Core: 0.13.0  [Torrent]." bar above.

When will this get updated? A lot of people pay attention to that News section in the forum and they may think 0.13.1 is still not out (yeah it's hard if you browse reddit but believe it or not a lot of people don't). I think it's important to keep this up to date.
