Ollama’s v0.40.11-rc0 release candidate includes a voice catalog for Phonon and changes to how it spells out symbols, numbers and links. The notes also say OpenCode will use its allocated context, and Qwen3 Coder will preserve literal function-closing tags in parameters.
Other changes include allowing an empty state for vllm-d3 and updating the bundled llama.cpp version to b11845. The release notes do not specify when a final v0.40.11 version will be available.
Why it matters
People using Phonon may get a voice catalog and clearer handling of symbols, numbers and links; the notes do not explain which voices are included or when the final release will arrive.
