'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.8 M2 is due for release this week
*YP 5.0.2 is in QA.
*YP 2.6.3 is in QA
*YP 5.2 M2 is due to build next week.
*We have a new “newcomer” bug category which are bugs suited to someone new to the project. These can be seen here: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs
*An issue with code content in python library functions and their effect on task hashes was identified and improvements have merged to bitbake for this.
*This release which was 2.8 will now become 3.0
*A patch changing the way the *FLAGS variables operate merged.
*The project is working on some mentor and mentee opportunities. Please see the separate email from Nicolas on the yocto list about this.
*An autobuilder migration blocking issue with cpu emulation under qemu+KVM was identified and worked around by kernel tweaks, thanks Bruce.
*Patches to bitbake to enable the task scheduler to react to “equivalent” build output have merged. There is more information about this major change in a separate email:
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2019-August/285300.html
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*It is hoped this change should improve productivity and reduce rebuilds.
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*In making some of these changes, there were some API changes in bitbake, notably the removal of the bb.build.FuncFailed exception, the signature generator task representation changed and there were some siggen function API changes.
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
libx11-diet was removed as its not really appropriate on a modern locale aware system.
*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
**The letter has proved helpful in discussions and helping influence changes at CISA and the CVE Project so has already been useful.
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately.
 
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*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 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.
*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.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
