'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.3 M3 rc1 was released and work is being done on the autobuilder QA email step to improve for future releases. The regression report is still being worked on.
*YP 5.0.5 is under review
*YP 3.1.28 is under review for release
*YP 4.0.23 is in QA
*YP 4.0.13 rc2 is in QA
*Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades pending after the recent AUH run.
*The numpy reproducibility issue remains and is proving extremely problematic with many failed builds. We may have to merge the debug patch into master.
*A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
*The openssh ptest intermittent failure does have better logs available but we’ve yet to decode what it means: http://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20230917-2/testresults/qemuarm64-ptest/openssh.log
*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.  
*The changes to error for overlapping symlinks under sstate control have highlighted some issues, particularly in world build configurations however so far these have proven to be real issues that needed addressing in the configuration as the files overlapped and caused determinism issues.
*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
*The number of build failures from incoming patches remains high and is causing patch review delays and headaches for the maintainers. We are not here to debug people’s patches, we’re only meant to be catching accidental/occasional issues.
*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).
*Patches for enabling wider SPDX tooling and testing in core are being proposed but there are quite a few python module dependencies. We do have good tooling/class support for python modules so the maintenance overhead of these is relatively low but the number of modules in core has increased steadily. Feedback welcome.
*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
*Since the 6.4 kernel is already EOL, we are considering a 6.5 kernel for 4.3 as the best of several difficult options.
*We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!
*The project is working on improving its security processes and policies, there are emails on the mailing list discussing this. Please highlight these to any parties who may be interested or have useful feedback.

*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
