Advance notice of OFFLFIRSOCH 2026

Smol friends! The third annual Offline-First Software Challenge begins on the 1st of March, which is two weeks away from today. There is a small wrinkle this year in that I will be travelling for most of the second half of February and most of the first half of March. I will have very limited access to all the usual tooling that lets me "be Solderpunk" during that time. I will set up a cron job on the Zaibatsu before I leave to hopefully enable publishing a pre-written official announcement on March 1st like every year, but in the event that it doesn't work for some reason, please just assume with confidence that we're following the same procedure as every year, and do your very best. I won't reply to your emails with the URL for your participating post until I get home, but rest assured that I will do so eventually. I will probably even participate in the challenge myself, but I guess I'll have to aim low with only half the usual time budget...
