Please arrange to release the download links for /e/ OS ‘Q’. Currently only the 'O’reo ROMs are shown.

Thanks for pointing this out. The taimen Q build failed. The documentation has been corrected.

Oh, thanks for the correction. So it wasn’t worth the wait. That’s too bad though.

I had already prepared everything for the /e/installation, which means I had replaced GrapheneOS 11 2/2021 with Stock Android 10.0.0 8/2020.

Well, then back to GrapheneOS 11 with Verified Boot and Locked Bootloader.
