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


*SWAT lead is currently: Anuj
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*SWAT team rotation: Anuj -> Armin on Mar. 15, 2019
*YP 5.1 M3 has been released
*SWAT team rotation: Armin -> Paul on Mar. 23, 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 2.7 M2 rc2 was released on May 5, 2019.
*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!
*We believe we now have all the key components for 2.7M3 in master-next but have not completed a successful test run with this. In addition to the list last week, this means M3 will include:
*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
**5.0 kernel
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
**qemuarm transition to armv7
*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
**Busybox full replacement utils
*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.
*Some invalid source revisions tested in master-next have broken the autobuilder causing build hangs and failures. With travel and other distractions, nobody is available to dive in and debug this immediately so it will block M3.
*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.
*We also want to complete the transition to the new QA process and test this for M3. Aproov is going to send out details of this imminently, we believe the main code work is complete and its process/documentation that remains. We will block on this as we want to use the new QA process for M3 and the final 2.7 release.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*YP 2.5.3 continues to be blocked on autobuilder-helper changes for the stable branches and the resulttool changes in master to move to the new QA process.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
