'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1.4 will build later this week.
*YP 4.0.19  and YP 5.1 M1 were released
*YP 3.3 development in master is continuing as patches are reviewed, tested and merged.
*YP 5.0.2 was built and is entering QA.
*We plan to backport the sphinx documentation transition back to our LTS after 3.1.4 is built.
*There were some great patch status cleanups, thanks Alexander (will show in next week’s metrics)
*A small but important issue was identified related to build reproducibility where the host umask was influencing the build output in relatively minor ways. We plan to run a mixture of umasks on the autobuilder infrastructure in future to avoid this source of reproducibility issues. There are patches for the issues queued for master and will be backported in due course.
*There is a patch to improve the way the *FLAGS variables operate. It is possible this may change behavior in some corner cases but the usability improvements mean we’re likely to merge the patch and address any issues that arise.
*Support for fedora33 has been resolved but required making pseudo-native host specific and not ‘uninative’ due to differences in the way pseudo builds depending on the presence of headers.
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
*Hashserve “passthrough” support has merged allowing hashservers to be chained together, thanks Joshua.
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur. 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
*Further autobuilder improvements have been submitted and accepted into upstream buildbot (field history, triggered build summary stats and work name display in build summary). As these are released and deployed, they will make small but important improvements to the autobuilder usability.
**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.

*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!
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers

*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 3.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.3_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*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.
