'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.6.3 has been released.
*YP 5.0.2 is in QA.
*This release which was 2.8 will now become 3.0.
*YP 5.2 M2 is due to build next week.
*The sstate hash equivalency continues to have challenges:
*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.
**performance of the hash server is not able to scale to the autibuilder’s load
*A patch changing the way the *FLAGS variables operate merged.
**there are some bugs in the code the autobuilder continues to expose
*An autobuilder migration blocking issue with cpu emulation under qemu+KVM was identified and worked around by kernel tweaks, thanks Bruce.
**we have cases where its not 100% clear what the correct behaviour should be
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
**test cases are proving to be problematic to write in a maintainable way
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*On a more positive note, some of the key performance issues were identified and fixed so performance doesn’t regress for usage without hash equivalence. Several corruption issues and other key fixes to runqueue also merged.
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*Jason Wessel finally tracked down our mystery glibc-locale bug, which was not a pseudo issue. Thanks and kudos to Jason!
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*General patch merging is currently delayed along with patch feedback due to the hash equivalence issues and lack of bandwidth to progress everything at once.
*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
*We still need to make a decision on systemd or sysvinit defaults as the init system.
**The letter has proved helpful in discussions and helping influence changes at CISA and the CVE Project so has already been useful.
*We are a week away from the 3.0 feature freeze.
*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.
