About Ollama

Heads-down in a long v0.30.0 rc cycle, hardening Windows and ROCm builds

Ollama is deep in a v0.30.0 release-candidate run (rc20 through rc27), and the visible churn is almost entirely platform plumbing: Windows CPU build workarounds, ROCm CI cache fixes, and clearer Windows exit logging. The one structural signal is an upstream merge into a 'llama-runner-phase-0' branch, hinting at runner work underneath the build noise.
