Inquiry about the release timeline for Z-Image-Edit

[luori668]

Hi Z-Image Team,

First off, thank you for open-sourcing Z-Image-Turbo and Z-Image-Base! The community has been really impressed with the quality and structure-preserving capabilities of the model.

I noticed that Z-Image-Edit was originally planned for Q1 2026 but hasn't been released yet. As a user eagerly waiting to integrate instruction-based editing into my workflow, I was wondering if there are any updates on the release schedule or potential roadblocks?

Additionally, if there are any ways the community can help (such as testing, documentation, or providing specific feedback) to accelerate the process, please let us know. We'd love to contribute!

Thanks again for your amazing work!

It's dead.

I think Alibaba ordered the cancellation of all open-source initiatives. See how Qwen Image 2 was announced as open source and then they changed their minds in subsequent announcements.
