'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.3 M1 has passed QA and is due to release
*YP 5.0.5 is under review
*The 6.1 kernel continues to have stability issues which appear to be introduced between 6.1.26 and 6.1.28, we’ve not seen the issue so far with 6.1.27. We know it happens on 32 and 64 bit x86 and occurs even with just one CPU enabled. This has not been seen by other kernel users which is a concern too.
*YP 4.0.23 is in QA
*We continue to see problematic intermittent failures on the autobuilder. We’re struggling to make progress against these and they are feeling overwhelming. We’re open to ideas on how we might try and address them. Experience shows that if left unresolved/ignored, people do end up hitting them in real world usage or during testing of their own products.
*Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades pending after the recent AUH run.
*The autobuilder test matrix has seen some revisions:
*A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
**to split out toolchain testing to a separate target
*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.  
**remove some duplicate testing for efficiency
*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
**optimize reproducibility testing to improve speed
*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’re also about to add limited meta-clang testing to the test matrix.
*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
These should improve autobuilder test execution time but has made one test race issue much more common which will need to be addressed.
*We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!

'''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: 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!

*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
