'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.1.1 has passed QA and is likely to be released imminently.
*YP 5.0.5 is under review
*We’d like to remind people of the importance of developing features on master. Once ready, these can then become available in the next LTS. We do not develop features against current LTS releases, that defeats their purpose.
*YP 4.0.23 is in QA
*A key bug in sstate reuse with hash equivalence where “hard” dependencies like pseudo-native and shadow-native rehash was found and is fixed in bitbake master.
*Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades pending after the recent AUH run.
*We are thinking about more significant bitbake changes at the moment. Some ideas under consideration are:
*A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
**Adding extra information about hashes to the bitbake cache (and the expense of slower loading cache files and slightly slower initial parsing). This would allow easier debugging of hash mismatch issues (e.g. basehash parsing mismatches or esdk hash issues).
*Yocto Project Compatible (and hence yocto-check-layer) is potentially undergoing some small tweaks which includes checking for SECURITY files in repository top levels, checking for network access outside do_fetch as part of normal builds and checking for disabled QA checks.  
**Thinking about the idea of variable “filter” functions to help implementation of recipe class extensions (like native and nativesdk).
*A potential new “include_all” conf file directive (discussed on the openembedded-architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2055 ) has no strong objections and is proceeding to proof of concept
**Extending bitbake’s recipe syntax to support structured data.
*There are patches under review for the addition of configuration fragment management to bitbake. It does require the addition of support for ‘/’ characters in variable flag names (which has been requested in the past too).
*We’d welcome a proposal/series on how to move forward with the Y2038 work for 32 bit platforms.
*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!


'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
'''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 4.2 See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.2_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.
