Current evaluation

Placeholder task by a maintainer to add core26 support to the gnome extension, to be produced after the stable core26 base snap release. No comments or labels; an open PR (#6278) already targets this work and gnome.py still only supports core22/core24.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: The author is a maintainer and the body explicitly states this is a placeholder task the Desktop team produces following the stable core26 base snap release, so inactivity is expected rather than staleness. PR #6278 (open) already implements core26 gnome support and gnome.py's get_supported_bases() still returns only ('core22', 'core24'), confirming the work is not yet merged and the issue remains relevant.
