*We are now at feature freeze and working on bug fixing for the final 5.1 release builds
*Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester
*Some limited recipe upgrades may be taken in M4 depending on their value of bug fixes vs breaking changes/features.
 
*Fixes to make ERROR_QA only rebuild tasks it directly affects were merged, which will improve sstate reuse from the project servers significantly.
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.
*YP 4.2.1 and YP 4.0.10 have been released
*Upcoming Event:  For those attending OSS EU in Vienna, Yocto Project Developer Day Sept. 19th 9am-5pm.
*M1 is due to build next week.
*Register here: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/open-source-summit-europe/features/co-located-events/#yocto-project-developer-day
*We upgraded to gcc 13 after fixes for the major issues in OE-Core were found
*New uninative releases were made to enable support on distros where they’re upgraded to gcc 13 versions.
*The 5.15 kernel was dropped from master in preparation for adding a new kernel version later in the development cycle.
*There is discussion about changing the CVE_CHECK_IGNORE functionality, please comment in the discussion on the list if you have opinions on what we should do there.
*FILE_LAYERNAME support was added to bitbake, paving the way for layer specific override support.
*Autobuilder intermittent issues continue to be an issue. One set of intermittent issues was tracked down in glib tests and a fix was accepted upstream but other issues remain.
*A number of recent changes combined together to lower our overall patch count to the lowest we’re seen in years, it is great to see patches improving over time, albeit slowly!

*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!

*There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarball and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting some kind of upstream feature merged to make this easier: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260

We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
