'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 has been released, thanks to everyone who has worked on it!
*YP 4.0.19 is ready for release.
*YP 4.1.4 is due to be released
*YP 5.1 M1 is ready for release.
*YP 3.1.25 is in QA
*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.
*The warnings issues on the autobuilder have mostly been resolved but there are a number of lingering intermittent issues that we’re still working through.
*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.
*Patches have been merging into master but there continues to be a number of issues being found in testing which does slow down the process.
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
*There are time64 patches being proposed to handle Y2038 issues on 32 bit architectures which likely need further discussion since the compiler flag changes aren’t without risk and potential side effects.
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*The minimum kernel version for OE-Core is now set at 5.15 as part of the time64 work but also to aid performance.
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*We’re aiming to improve documentation as we go along in this release, please keep this in mind when sending patches!
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*There is a proposal on the bitbake mailing list which would allow the possibility of layer overrides, which could be useful for some of the QA checks recently discussed.
*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: 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.
