Well, actually, nathan was right. "Offline UU" = "Offline Until Uru" = a version of Until Uru that can be played offline. You can imagine the available Uru versions to be a table with 2 columns and many rows. The rows might be UU, TPOTS and MOUL, and the columns are "offline" and "online". "UU online" is the old UU with the Shards, "UU offline" is what you talked about, "TPOTS offline" is the normal TPOTS, "TPOTS online" can only be achieved with Alcugs Shards, "MOUL online" is MOUL and "MOUL offline" does not (yet) exist.
However, the patch is not exactly from me, it is by Cyan. I just put it on my server, because it used to be hard to find on the net.
To answer the question how UU relates to ABM, To D'ni and POTS: To D'ni brings the content of that was supposed to be published in Uru Prologue (the old Uru Live with Ubisoft) to ABM, but in a different way so that is is playable (and makes some kind of sense) alone. For example, the way the marker missions work was changed. UU came later (as far as I can remember), and contained the multiplayer-version of that same content.
