'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We’re now in feature freeze for 3.0 and working on bug fixing for final release
*YP 4.0.19 has been through QA and is due for release
*There are the following planned features which are still under consideration for 3.0:
*YP 5.1 M1 rc2 is in QA
**Systemd vs. sysvinit defaults (maybe for the poky alternative configuration tests)
*RFC patches for the CVE tooling changes have been posted, help in review is appreciated
**Removal of LSB and poky-lsb and replacement with alt config testing
*There are SPDX 3.0 patches ready for review on the mailing list
**Final configuration of hash equivalency
*There are patches proposing that missing patch Upstream-Status entries be a fatal QA error, this is likely to merge soon as there have been no objections to it.
*The sstate hash equivalency continues to have challenges:
*We have a fix for the final Fedora 40 issue, thanks Victor.
**we need to rework the client/server communication to scale to the autobuilder
*We appreciate everyone fixing layers to work with master after recent changes, the autobuilder health is looking greener, thanks!
**there are some bugs in the code the autobuilder continues to expose
*The copy_unihashes function was dropped from bitbake after the locked signature file improvements which simplifies further tooling work
**we have cases where its not 100% clear what the correct behaviour should be
*There is discussion on openembedded-architecture about the details around  configuration fragment tooling potentially being integrated into bitbake
**test cases are proving to be problematic to write in a maintainable way
*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
*Patch merging has been delayed due to vacations (RP and Ross) so the final feature patches aren’t resolved yet.
*Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
*If anyone has any status items for the proj
*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.
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc.
*Through post release upgrading our patch count reduced again and is now the lowest level since July 2008!


'''Planned Releases for YP 3.0 {2.8}:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M3 Release 6th Sept
*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!
*M4 Cutoff 30th Sept - this will be YP 3.0.
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*YP 3.0 {2.8 (M4)} Final Release 25th Oct
*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.
