Current evaluation

Request for a snapcraft-rocks image based on the newly released core26 base, needed for GIMP's CI rebuilds; repo currently only ships core22/core24 rocks. No labels, no maintainer response, inactive for 119 days.

Suggested action: needs triage

Reason: The issue is unlabelled, unassigned, and has zero maintainer interaction in 119 days, so it has never been assessed. It is a valid, still-relevant feature request (no core26 rock exists in the repo, per grep and README.rst which only lists 8_core24), and there is direct precedent for adding a new-base rock (PR #21 for core24), so it warrants triage rather than closure.

Issue body

Hi. This is a request to Canonical provide a snapcraft-rocks image based on core26, which was just released This is needed for rebuilding gimp snap over core26 since we use snapcraft-rocks on our CI (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/work_items/15744) and the `snapcraft:8_core24` branch is pretty abandoned lately. Thanks in advance. ping @mr-cal
