'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7.2 should be released imminently.
*YP 5.1 M3 has been released
*The reproducibility issues from last week have been addressed and we are hoping to enable this by default soon, thanks to everyone who helped fix issues.
*YP 4.0.21 has been released
*The news for hash equivalence is not so promising. Whilst a number of bugs were fixed, we’ve found a major problem which explains some of the failures we’ve seen and are currently working out how we may be able to resolve that issue.
*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is being built
*Intermittent build failures continue to hamper builds, particularly combined with the above issues and as few people are available to attempt to debug and resolve them.
*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 focus on hash equivalence and reproducibility has slowed patch merging in other areas. Patch testing has been problematic as there are a lot of regressions being found in submitted patches which also slows down the whole merging process.
*The final pieces of the release were merged:
*The TSC is working on LTS plans, productive discussions have been had and a new policy on handling this and stable releases should be available in the next couple of weeks.
**sanity test for Ubuntu 24.04 userns/apparmor issue added
*We are continuing to collect ideas for YP 3.1 in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UKZIGe88-eq3-pOPtkAvFAegbQDzhy_f4ye64yjnABc/edit?usp=sharing
**TCLIBCAPPEND properly deprecated
*Due to the number of key fixes being found we have delayed YP 3.0.1 being built slightly whilst we merge those fixes, it should build in the next few days.
**toaster fixtures tweaked
*If anyone has any status items for the project they’d like to add to the weekly reports, please email Richard+Stephen.
**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.


'''Proposed YP 3.1 Milestone Dates'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M1 Proposed build date 12/2/2019
*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!
*YP 3.1 M1 Proposed release date 12/13/2019
*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 3.1 M2 Proposed build date 1/20/2020
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*YP 3.1 M2 Proposed release date 1/31/2020
*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
*YP 3.1 M3 Proposed build date 2/24/2020
*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.
*YP 3.1 M3 Proposed release date 3/6/2020
*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.
*YP 3.1 M4 Proposed build date  3/30/2020
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*YP 3.1 M4 Proposed release date  4/24/2020
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
