'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*M3 has been built and is currently in QA
*YP 4.0.18 has been released
*There are a small number of upgrades which merged after M3 as it was felt better to be up to date in these cases along with various other fixes. The project is now very much in feature freeze and bug fixing working toward the final release though.
*YP 5.0.1 rc2 is in QA.
*The OpenEmbedded election for its TSC members is now in the nomination phase.
*YP 5.0.1 rc1 was abandoned due to high numbers of intermittent failures.
*For the stable releases, the autobuilder-helper changes have now merged and the resulttool patches are also backported on the relevant -next branches. This means we’re ready to build both 2.5.3 and 2.6.2.
*There are some CVE related announcements which are helpful to us:
**There was a CVE 5.1 Record format announcement with changes that encourage more useful data from our perspective
**CISA announced on linkedin the creation of https://github.com/cisagov/vulnrichment
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
**Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
**Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
*The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
*The WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition and redefinition of UNPACKDIR now has patches under testing in master-next, including updates to recipetool and devtool which pass our automated tests.
*gcc 14 has patches pending thanks for Khem and Martin in particular. Merging the new gcc version is needed to generate new uninative tarballs to support Fedora 40 builds or any other distro using the new gcc version.
*The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
*Mailing list changes now mean any google hosted email accounts have the mailing list From: address rewritten. This had impacted our ability to handle patches but key maintainers now have workarounds for this.
*Our automated tests have been seeing a number of intermittent issues. An email was sent detailing a few of these and the response with several patches or patches in progress has been extremely helpful and they’re very gratefully received.
 
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
