 - [2026/08] [VeRL-Omni](https://github.com/verl-project/verl-omni) `v0.2.0` is released: faster diffusion RL powered by vLLM-Omni (request-level/step-wise batching with FA3), rebuilt Qwen3-Omni multimodal training (DPO & GSPO), plus LTX-2.3, Qwen-Image-Edit support and more. See the [release notes](https://github.com/verl-project/verl-omni/releases/tag/v0.2.0).
 - [2026/08] We released [0.26.0](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/releases/tag/v0.26.0) - aligned with the vLLM 0.26 release line, featuring [MiniMax H3](recipes/MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3.md) joint video/audio generation, an experimental full-duplex realtime runtime for [MiniCPM-o 4.5](recipes/OpenBMB/MiniCPM-o-4_5.md), distributed layerwise diffusion offload, and broader model, hardware, streaming, TTS, and quantization support.
 - [2026/07] We released [0.24.0](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/releases/tag/v0.24.0) - aligned with the vLLM 0.24 release line, expanding production-ready coverage across TTS, speech, diffusion, image/video generation, and robot-policy serving, with major Omni stage runtime refactoring, diffusion request-level batching, async output materialization, quantization/cache/memory improvements, and broad CUDA/ROCm/XPU/NPU support.
