4.0.9

Release for 4.0 N3LO hep-ph/2402.18635
Last release fully backwards-compatible with 4.0 pipeline. 4.0 runcards will still work but: external tools, data and theory not used in the 4.0 family of fits will no longer be guaranteed to work going forward.
Last release compatible with the old commondata format

This release is compatible with python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11

To install from conda you can use:

conda install nnpdf=4.0.9.0 -c conda-forge -c https://packages.nnpdf.science/public

or pip:

 python -m pip install git+https://github.com/NNPDF/[email protected]
