'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.8 M2 is due for release this week
*YP 5.1 M3 has been released
*YP 2.6.3 is in QA
*YP 4.0.21 has been released
*We have a new “newcomer” bug category which are bugs suited to someone new to the project. These can be seen here: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs
*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is being built
*This release which was 2.8 will now become 3.0
*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 project is working on some mentor and mentee opportunities. Please see the separate email from Nicolas on the yocto list about this.
*The final pieces of the release were merged:
*Patches to bitbake to enable the task scheduler to react to “equivalent” build output have merged. There is more information about this major change in a separate email:
**sanity test for Ubuntu 24.04 userns/apparmor issue added
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2019-August/285300.html
**TCLIBCAPPEND properly deprecated
*It is hoped this change should improve productivity and reduce rebuilds.
**toaster fixtures tweaked
*In making some of these changes, there were some API changes in bitbake, notably the removal of the bb.build.FuncFailed exception, the signature generator task representation changed and there were some siggen function API changes.
**buildtools updated
libx11-diet was removed as its not really appropriate on a modern locale aware system.
**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.
 
'''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 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
*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.
