'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1.23 is due to be released.
*YP 5.1 M3 is due to be released
*We are due to build M3 and are at '''feature freeze for YP 4.2'''.
*YP 4.0.21 is in QA
*We saw further version upgrades this week and a number of bitbake hang fixes or fixes for exits with no output. There are a few remaining issues to conclude then we should be in a good position to build M3.
*We are now at feature freeze and working on bug fixing for the final 5.1 release builds
*CVE levels in master are reducing. The remaining concern is the large number of linux-yocto CVEs which have shown up since we last updated the exclusion lists. The full list can be seen here: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/cve-status-master.txt Help in resolving these so we can remove the exclusion on linux-yocto on all reports would be appreciated.
*Due to timing of autobuilder infrastructure changes, vacations, no release blocking bugs and also seemingly limited availability of people to help with general bug fixing, we are considering an early M4 build, maybe even this week. If that would cause problems for anyone, please let Richard/the TSC know ASAP.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*Support for TCLIBCAPPEND was dropped.
*We updated to only support the “styhead” layer series namespace.
*The new autobuilder infrastructure is showing a number of challenges including some new bugs, new intermittent issues, challenges with new distros and a new reproducibility issue but we’re working through them
*There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.
*Upcoming Event:  For those attending OSS EU in Vienna, Yocto Project Developer Day Sept. 19th 9am-5pm.
*Register here: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/open-source-summit-europe/features/co-located-events/#yocto-project-developer-day

*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!
