'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 M1 and YP 4.0.6 passed QA and are due for release.
*Richard Purdie is on holiday this week. For any urgent questions please contact Ross Burton who is covering.
*Builds on the autobuilder are problematic at present due to connection losses with the controller machine. We understand the cause and will be migrating the controller to a new server/location to address this.
*Last week was the Open Source Summit and Yocto Project Developer Day. Many thanks to Josef, Megan, and Philip for arranging this event which was well attended and was great to attend (RB)
*That, combined with OOM issues from recent bitbake cache changes meant patches are merging more slowly this week.
*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) has passed QA, the final work item is updating the documentation. Help to write and review release notes and migration guides is greatly appreciated.
*There are a number of bitbake patches pending which are a bit more invasive than usual. These are aiming to address:
*master and styhead have now diverged, so be aware of this if you’re tracking git branches.
**memory issues seen with the recent cache changes and bitbake -S
*Migration to the new autobuilder has been postponed by a month to October, due to scaling issues and problems related to NFS and Ubuntu 24.04.  https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15596 has further details if anyone has insight into new coreutils plus NFS access control lists. Everyone who has the authority to trigger builds is encouraged to use the new cluster to stress test it.
**UI hangs where the bitbake server has crashed/hung or otherwise failed
*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.
**issues where bitbake may have removed another server instances bitbake.sock network socket file
*There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.
**console interaction issues where bitbake may not respond to Ctrl+C
**event handler race issues around datastore accesses
*The OE TSC decided in favour of adding export flag expansion despite the performance impact so that patch will be queued.
*CVE levels in master are concerning again
*With some debugging, the bitbake.sock disappearance was potentially identified and also issues with OOM process killing locking up bitbake’s server and UI were studied.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*There will be no status report next week, the next will be 3rd January 2023.

*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: patchtest, layerindex, 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’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
