'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 rc3 has passed QA and is pending TSC approval for release.
*YP 4.0.18 has been released
*YP 4.1.4 is now in QA.
*YP 5.0.1 rc2 is in QA.
*Patches are merging into master for 4.3.
*YP 5.0.1 rc1 was abandoned due to high numbers of intermittent failures.
*Emails to all currently listed maintainers have been sent to check the entries are up to date. If anyone is interested in taking on maintenance of any unassigned recipes, please send a patch.
*There are some CVE related announcements which are helpful to us:
*We discovered warnings were not being correctly handled on the autobuilder after the buildbot controller upgrade. That should now be fixed but it means some regressions may have crept in, we’re working to confirm if that is the case or not.
**There was a CVE 5.1 Record format announcement with changes that encourage more useful data from our perspective
*We’re in the process of adding checks to ensure that ptests returning no test results trigger warnings. This should ensure we catch this situation earlier since ptests should always return at least one test result. python3-cryptography is an example of a recipe that recently regressed unnoticed in this way.
**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.

*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: patchtest, layerindex, 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!

We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
