Yup. I posted about the huggingface countdown: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49272534 but seems like both the huggingface page, and the modelscope.cn URL that commenters found, were quickly taken down. Not sure if the submission being flagged is also the doing of whoever took down the huggingface/modelscope.cn pages.
Edit: for anyone curious, I saw the huggingface countdown page for Kimi K3, which gave me a hunch that led me to the countdown page for Qwen3.8-27B. As of ~11am EST today, the countdown page said 2 days and 2 hours to release.
