It's been out for a few days now in Australia and some European countries. It comes out in New Zealand today.
I won't be rushing to get it, because this is my chance to clean up at the next guantlet when I am the only one able to play it! Haha!

It looks like the patches to Vanilla and Warlords that come with BTS are available via the advanced options menu. Below are links to threads with more info:
patch 1.74 is released
Warlords Patch 2.13 Released
We will be working to get the new versions of the HOF Mod for Vanilla and Warlords out asap.
If you want to continue to compete in the gauntlets and such you might want to look at the dual install steps in the post above before you install any patches.

Nope, can't say that I do.
Yes, but I don't think it's been officially announced yet.
edit: hm...perhaps I should have just clicked on those links, rather than asking questions
Me too! I didn't realize they'd finally released the changes.

I don't have BTS yet, so it's not an issue but ... this just gets so complicated, especially for we mere sub-mortals who don't program or write in C
. I really don't understand step 4 - I run the programs from desktop icons, and I don't understand what this means in that context. How does it work?

What I do is copy the desktop icon and rename it. Say by adding 1.61/2.08. Then you go into the properties (right-click on it) and change the "Target" and "Start in" to point to the correct folders/path for the older versions: 
In my case, I called my 1.61 folder "Sid Meier's Civilization 4 (1.61)". Does that make sense?
New Mods are out for the Vanilla and Warlords patches. These new mods will be Gauntlet legal in a future update, not at this time.
There is not a BTS HOF Mod yet at this time, nor will there be in the near future.

Are there any known issues with compatibility between 2.08 saves and 2.13 saves? I've got several games in progress but I have to patch NOW for some multiplayer games, and don't have room to dual-install.
That's an interesting question. With Locked Modified Assets checked, there would be zero compatability.
Without LMA, I haven't a clue. Are you asking about HOF Mod saves or just regular old saves? Either way, you might want to get someone to trying it out before you commit. I do know that the save version didn't change.
Keep in mind that if these are HOF games, they have to be finished with the mod they started in. We don't allow multipatch games, if they work.

I was talking about HOF games, which means I'll have to start them all over. I barely had enough space to install the patch, because I can't get windows to use any other drive besides C: for temp space.

I have 280 megs free on a 10 gig drive. The patch installer itself takes up 80 megs, and then another 90 to unpack, and then about 100 more to install. And then I had to go back and do the vanilla patch with even less free space.
