-[2023/10] We hosted [the first vLLM meetup](https://lu.ma/first-vllm-meetup) in SF! Please find the meetup slides [here](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1QL-XPFXiFpDBh86DbEegFXBXFXjix4v032GhShbKf3s/edit?usp=sharing).
-[2023/09] We created our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/jz7wjKhh6g)! Join us to discuss vLLM and LLM serving! We will also post the latest announcements and updates there.
-[2023/09] We released our [PagedAttention paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.06180) on arXiv!
-[2023/08] We would like to express our sincere gratitude to [Andreessen Horowitz](https://a16z.com/2023/08/30/supporting-the-open-source-ai-community/)(a16z) for providing a generous grant to support the open-source development and research of vLLM.
- [2023/07] Added support for LLaMA-2! You can run and serve 7B/13B/70B LLaMA-2s on vLLM with a single command!
-[2023/06] Serving vLLM On any Cloud with SkyPilot. Check out a 1-click [example](https://github.com/skypilot-org/skypilot/blob/master/llm/vllm) to start the vLLM demo, and the [blog post](https://blog.skypilot.co/serving-llm-24x-faster-on-the-cloud-with-vllm-and-skypilot/) for the story behind vLLM development on the clouds.
-[2023/06] We officially released vLLM! FastChat-vLLM integration has powered [LMSYS Vicuna and Chatbot Arena](https://chat.lmsys.org) since mid-April. Check out our [blog post](https://vllm.ai).
