'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.20 was released
*YP 5.2 M2 was released
*YP 5.1 M2 is due to be released
*YP 5.0.7 is under review and passed QA
*A new wiki page summarizing options for meta-gplv2 replacement was created: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Meta-gpl2_layer_replacement (thanks Khem)
*We are now 3 weeks from feature freeze for 5.2
*A document giving a brief overview of the Yocto Project Autobuilder/Infrastructure has been shared: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/images/0/04/Yocto_Project_Autobuilder.pdf and will be discussed on today’s engineering sync call.
*The project autobuilder has upgraded the controller to buildbot 4.2 which was tricky due to our custom plugin and changes to the framework used for the UI. The new UI should have the same functionality and seems faster and easier to use in places.
*Autobuilder intermittent issues continue to cause concern but if we don’t have anyone able to work on them there is little we can do.
*We’d like to request help to process the open github pull requests for openembedded-core and bitbake:
*A bug in pseudo around the resolution of symlinks was identified and a fix merged, thanks to the reporter for sending a good test case!
**https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/pulls
*We cleaned up a lot of python dependencies and added some extra tests, thanks Ross.
**https://github.com/openembedded/bitbake/pulls
*The rustdoc reproducibility issue was found and fixed, thanks Sundeep! We will now be able to upgrade rust to newer versions although further issues remain in some newer versions.
*Having these open doesn’t look good for the projects and we can’t disable them, some have been open for a long time. We did already clean up the poky pull requests.
*The new mesa version requires meta-clang for the intel drivers. We need to make a decision on how to handle this, clang is likely to make its way to core at some point but work is needed to make the overrides suitable for core before that can happen.
*The project has agreed guidance on AI submissions: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/docs/message/6300
*There are multiple occasional but annoying autobuilder failures we could do with help debugging/fixing, summarized by https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/ :
**An occasional hang for non-kvm x86/x86-64 qemu images early in boot, see in multiple kernels including the recent 6.12:
***https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/valkyrie/#/builders/28/builds/955
***https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15463
**dnf failures in where ssh appears to fail, usually on qemumips but also seen on qemuarm: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13674
**Ongoing CDN failures
**New memory allocation issues hinting we may need to scale builds back
*We are open to help developing patches to help debug issue further or other ideas on the causes and/or ways to mitigate them
*The Linux Foundation published information on navigating global regulations and sanctions: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/navigating-global-regulations-and-open-source-us-ofac-sanctions
*Please contact TSC members if there are questions/concerns.
*The gomod mirror issue in meta-openembedded continues to give failed builds on the autobuilder.
*Gold linker support was removed from core.
*Linux 6.6 was removed so we now just have the 6.12 kernel we plan to release YP 5.2 with.
*The performance metric charts were improved to be able to show both commit based and time based data, allowing performance changes to be isolated more easily.
*The triage team decided to clear out the “newcomer” bugs in bugzilla since the remaining ones were likely too hard without specialist knowledge. We’d love to see new/realist newcomer bugs being added.
*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 need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!

*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!
