'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.3 M1 was released
*YP 4.0.19 is ready for release.
*YP 3.1.26 is in QA
*YP 5.1 M1 is ready for release.
*The project has some exciting plans in progress and we're now in the fortunate position of seeking quotations for some development work. For more details please see this page on our website: https://www.yoctoproject.org/community/yocto-project-engineering-request-for-quotation/
*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 automated regression reporting saw some issues for the M1 report so this is being worked on.
*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 pending patches to enable layer-<layername> overrides which is particularly useful for enabling layer specific QA checks. This does bring some changes of behavior for QA checks on bbappends
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
*usrmerge is now enabled by default for poky-altcfg, in preparation for the changes being required by systemd.
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*The 6.1 kernel hang regression was identified and we reverted the problematic patch until the correct fix merges and filters through the stable kernel trees.
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*There have been a lot of ptest issues this week, not least after issues with “No-section” tracebacks were fixed, leading to an increase in reported failures as that was masking issues. There are some fixes proposed for ptest-runner but further help is needed on the various failures.
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*We have been approached by a potential new maintainer for the eclipse plugins. There were some questions about who was still using it and what the test matrix should look like so please let us know if you are and we can connect you.
*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.
*The tunctl functionality for runqemu has been dropped as the ip tool can handle everything needed.
*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!
