'''SWAT Team Rotation:'''<br/>
'''Next Team Meetings:'''<br/>
*Bug Triage meeting Thursday Sept. 19th at 7:30 am PST (https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)

*Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester


*SWAT lead is currently: Paul
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*SWAT team rotation: Paul -> Ross on Feb. 15, 2019
*YP 5.1 M3 has been released
*SWAT team rotation: Ross -> Amanda on Feb. 22, 2019
*YP 4.0.21 has been released
*https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team
*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is being built
*There are YP 5.2 proposed milestone dates https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TDrD9nFjosvLHa7EfL_Y1-1slK7u5Am6NZV6QRF2P6s/edit - please review and let us know if there are any concerns.
*The final pieces of the release were merged:
**sanity test for Ubuntu 24.04 userns/apparmor issue added
**TCLIBCAPPEND properly deprecated
**toaster fixtures tweaked
**buildtools updated
**non-deterministic libsdl2 configure issue fixed
**gitsm configparser change reverted
**many other varied and useful fixes
*Since there is now an rc build heading to QA, master and styhead will diverge. There are some patches in master-next which were deemed too late/risky for the release (including the gomod class changes)
*The new autobuilder has had NAS problems when scaled to final size, those are being worked on but it will delay switching to the new system a little.
*There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.


'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP M2 rc1 had major problems in perl as fallout from the perl upgrade and switch to perl-cross. We’ve therefore built an rc2 based on a more recent master.
*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!
*The python upgrade to 3.7 merged, thanks to AlexK for his hard work on this. It means all of the major components in OE-Core are finally up to date (many minor versions are still adrift).
*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
*Major util-linux changes have just merged which should hopefully allow easier long term maintenance of this recipe (all binaries now have their own package, this recipe kept being split up)
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*Build performance tests on the autobuilder have been improved and builds now have automated result comparisons, e.g.: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20190212-7/testresults/buildperf-ubuntu1604/perf-ubuntu1604_master_20190212045844_be52da1.html (from https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/92/builds/101) (Thanks to Markus for a lot of the underlying code/work)
*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
*Build performance can now compare master to master-next test builds
*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.
*We continue to need help with ptest, both on the tests themselves and on the results reporting. The intent is to have something similar to the build performance pieces above.
*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.
*The recipe reporting system integration with the layer index is available at: https://layers.openembedded.org/rrs/recipes/OE-Core/2.7/M3/ and the historical data has now been imported.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*The project is considering moving its mailing list hosting to groups.io, if anyone has any experience of that, positive or negative please let Michael, Nico and Richard know. Note that google has made further significant changes to its mail processing at the detriment to mailing lists: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/freedesktop/2019-February/000396.html
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*If anyone has feedback about the maintainers/recipe upgrade processes or how to attract new recipe maintainers, please talk to Richard Purdie / Ross Burton
