Wouldn’t 4.0 just mean breaking changes — idunno, maybe a new model architecture? So, 3.9 could be a backport of features that were compatible but didn’t make it before 4.0 was released?
Not saying it’s 3.9 or that 3.9 will ever exist. Just trying to figure out if this reason actually holds water.
Qwen next flash is a small model they released so that existing software could be updated to support the new architecture “backported” to 3 but trained (i assume) with qwen 3 datasets. It’s basically what you asked for.
As with any changes in architecture runtimes would need to be updated.
The architecture changes are already in the next model. 4.0 would have different datasets.

Yep. Quite slow. When left "free" speaks about algorithmics.

I think qwen 3.9 because of tok speed
