'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1.1 is out from QA and had no defects raised so is likely to be released after review
*YP 4.0.19 has been through QA and is due for release
*YP 3.2 M1 will be built as soon as we have a clean build run of the currently queued patches. We’ve not seen anything else pending critical to M1.
*YP 5.1 M1 rc2 is in QA
*We are struggling with maintainers for some key components of the system/infrastructure such as devtool, wic, buildhistory and patchwork/patchtest. If anyone can help in these areas please contact Richard.
*RFC patches for the CVE tooling changes have been posted, help in review is appreciated
*There was a key fix to the gitsm fetcher which resolved autobuilder regressions, thanks Paul Barker for helping resolve that at short notice.
*There are SPDX 3.0 patches ready for review on the mailing list
*There were some important improvements to multiconfig this week so that multiconfig task hashes are correctly accounted for and rebuilt as well as BBMASK being handled correctly in individual multiconfigs, thanks Joshua Watt for those improvements.
*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 biggest concern for both LTS and master right now are the intermittent test failures that keep occurring on the infrastructure, we’re struggling to get clean builds of either branch due to these issues. Instability in the upstream distros we run on (which we regularly pull for security updates) are sadly contributing to the issues, seemingly more significantly than usual.
*We have a fix for the final Fedora 40 issue, thanks Victor.
*If anyone has thoughts on attracting and recognising project contributors and contributions, we would be interested in ideas and assistance in that area.
*We appreciate everyone fixing layers to work with master after recent changes, the autobuilder health is looking greener, thanks!
*There remain a large number of bugs that we’d ideally like to fix in 3.2 M2 but they are “unassigned”, there is nobody to work on them. If anyone has time, looking at these bugs would be a great way to help us. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*The copy_unihashes function was dropped from bitbake after the locked signature file improvements which simplifies further tooling work
*There is discussion on openembedded-architecture about the details around  configuration fragment tooling potentially being integrated into bitbake
*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.
*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!


'''YP 3.2 Milestone Dates:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.2 M1 should be released shortly.
*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!
*YP 3.2 M2 build date 2020/7/27
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*YP 3.2 M2 Release date 2020/8/7
*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
*YP 3.2 M3 build date 2020/8/31
*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.
*YP 3.2 M3 Release date 2020/9/11
*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.
*YP 3.2 M4 build date 2020/10/5
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*YP 3.2 M4 Release date 2020/10/30
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
