Great to see the updates on Gales Linux '26. Could you point me towards some context for the #jwrd logs? I'm interested in learning how I might contribute or best stay informed about the project's next steps.

Hi @semidiqs. There's the channel per se ; meanwhile it gained a bot that handles key registration and WoT ratings ; there's background on JWRD besides the current site ; there's background on Gales and then its category link for more.
And could you share some context on who you are?
