+weighted/imatrix quants seem not to be available (by me) at this time. If they do not show up a week or so after the static ones, I have probably not planned for them. Feel free to request them by opening a Community Discussion.
+## Usage
+If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of [TheBloke's
+READMEs](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/KafkaLM-70B-German-V0.1-GGUF) for
+more details, including on how to concatenate multi-part files.
