Several of us have asked if there was a formal Challenge in April, and in spite - or rather, because - of the current situation, I say: Let's do it, let's create in the face of anxiety - even if it is one of the most difficult situations for creativity and vision to flourish, it's also one of the most valuable and rewarding.
There has been debate about whether an orthodox "Single in" challenge with its many restrictions and expectations was the right thing to do or if we should choose a more lenient format. We had a nice run this past January with "Vision 2020", so there's no reason why such a challenge should be any less worthwhile. For some of us, however, the "real" thing may hold more appeal.
I'm completely open to whatever the community decides in this matter; this is why I've added the poll. It runs until the last gasps of Thursday worldwide (which effectively means, up until Friday noon, Central European Time). Please feel free to add your suggestions for a new or changed format below if you have them. Note that the poll restricts you to a single choice, but you may change your vote if things develop in this thread; I may even amend the poll if something specific and interesting turns up. Watch this thread!
Since it's already clear that we'll do *something*, I'll already open a thread to declare your participation and, if that's your thing, your chosen gear. Please be aware that for an open format, it's not mandatory to declare one's choices, so doing so early may actually not be necessary at all in hindsight. But I myself will do the same because I always find that some deliberate restrictions help rather than make the task more difficult.
