'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We’re now in feature freeze for 3.0 and working on bug fixing for final release
*YP 5.1 M3 has been released
*There are the following planned features which are still under consideration for 3.0:
*YP 4.0.21 has been released
**Systemd vs. sysvinit defaults (maybe for the poky alternative configuration tests)
*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is being built
**Removal of LSB and poky-lsb and replacement with alt config testing
*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.
**Final configuration of hash equivalency
*The final pieces of the release were merged:
*The sstate hash equivalency continues to have challenges:
**sanity test for Ubuntu 24.04 userns/apparmor issue added
**we need to rework the client/server communication to scale to the autobuilder
**TCLIBCAPPEND properly deprecated
**there are some bugs in the code the autobuilder continues to expose
**toaster fixtures tweaked
**we have cases where its not 100% clear what the correct behaviour should be
**buildtools updated
**test cases are proving to be problematic to write in a maintainable way
**non-deterministic libsdl2 configure issue fixed
*Patch merging has been delayed due to vacations (RP and Ross) so the final feature patches aren’t resolved yet.
**gitsm configparser change reverted
*If anyone has any status items for the proj
**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.


'''Planned Releases for YP 3.0 {2.8}:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M3 Release 6th Sept
*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!
*M4 Cutoff 30th Sept - this will be YP 3.0.
*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
*YP 3.0 {2.8 (M4)} Final Release 25th Oct
*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.
