'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.1 M1 was built and been through QA with one kernel issue raised. We will likely release and fix this for M2, pending TSC approval.
*YP 4.0.19 is ready for release.
*YP 3.1.17 rc1 was built but failed on the autobuilder, partly due to infrastructure issues but also failing ptests in openssl, likely due to expired certificates. As of writing,  rc2 is building after infrastructure fixes but the ptest fixes were insufficient. If there are no other issues we will aim to release rc2 and fix the openssl ptest regressions for 3.1.18 pending TSC approval.
*YP 5.1 M1 is ready for release.
*Patches have continued to merge into master but have been slowed down by various intermittent issues showing up on the autobuilder:
*Patch status tags are now checked for by default. Layers which don't wish this can disable the error by removing patch-status from ERROR_QA.
**We have bumped the minimum make version for the project and added a make-native dependency for perl to avoid bugs in old make 4.1 versions (particularly on ubuntu 18.04).
*Fedora 40 support should be almost complete. GCC 14 is the gift that keeps on giving, the last issue I'm aware of is in 'expect' and there are now two competing patches for that.
**There are some fixes for potential deadlock issues in the bitbake UI on the bitbake list for review
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
**We also have some tweaks to the wget fetcher to allow infrastructure mirror races to be avoided.
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*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
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.
*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!

*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!

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