We try to make a little bit of progress on many features each month. So most of the time we won't have any giant new features, progress happens iteratively. You might also notice lots of deprecations as we get closer to 14.0 (immediately after 13.11) Happy to answer any questions.

Why isn't the what's new section in Gitlab updated for 13.10? It still says "13.9 (Your Version)".
EDIT: That is, the one under the help tab in a Gitlab instance on the top right.
On https://gitlab.com/help I see 13.11.0-pre as the version.
Maybe you're working on a self-managed version that still needs to be updated?
I'm talking about this: https://i.imgur.com/isbEqn6.png
My instance is definitely updated, I did it myself and verified the version number in the Admin section.

Hi Operyl - GitLab Product Leader here. Our process for updating the What's New content is delayed slightly from the release (as we use the release post images that are published on the 22nd for the What's New highlights). They'll show up shortly.

Here is the MR for 13.10 What's New Content. You'll need to update to the first point release after 13.10.0 to get this content. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/57119
This seems really bizarre to not be included with the .0 release. The features are live, but the label states "Your instance (current version) is 13.9". It could do with some more refining perhaps.

Hi Operyl, GitLab PM here. Thanks for the feedback on What's New. As you point out, it looks like we have some opportunity for refinement and better/clearer messaging for folks that update right away to the .0 release. I've opened up this issue to track that work and welcome your feedback or ideas there. Thank you! https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/325591
