'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.1 rc1 (final release) is in QA, the final work item is updating the documentation. Help to write and review release notes and migration guides is greatly appreciated.
*YP 5.3 M1 is due to be released. One issue was found which needs to be fixed during M2: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15915
*YP 5.0.4 is out of QA and under review for release.
**Help in debugging and fixing this would be very welcome.
*master and styhead have now diverged, so be aware of this if you’re tracking git branches.
*YP 4.0.28 is in QA.
*The new release series name is available in OE-Core master, ‘walnascar’ aka ‘walna’ verbally. Users are encouraged to update their master/devel branches to this.
*Patches continue to merge into master for upgrades and fixes.
*Early testing shows problems in Fedora 41 related to pseudo. Help in debugging and root causing appreciated.
*There were git tag improvements meaning we can now start adding these to SRC_URIs in all cases as shallow clone tarballs now account for them.
*The Ubuntu 24.04 with NFS issue has been resolved, but unless we respin the release build will not be fixed in 5.1.0.  A fix is already integrated into bitbake and will be in the first point release.
*The clang build time and size increases continue to cause significant concern.
*Migration to the new autobuilder is proceeding with regular users now encouraged to trigger builds on the new cluster to stress test and identify any issues.
*Patches to improve gomod support in devtool merged.
*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.
*The main mirroring issues left are around “downloadfilename” support in urls which likely needs to be rewritten.
*There is discussion around configuration file markup/syntax related to fragment management on the architecture list, targeting 5.2.
*OE_SHARED_UMASK was added to control the umask used for files created in the shared DL_DIR and SSTATE_DIR directories.
*For 5.2 it would be helpful to have rough development plans for areas of the project if anyone is able to help document a rough roadmap/plan for them. The following areas are known to be being or need working on:
*For M2, the following changes have been mentioned as possibilities:
**Autobuilder
**bitbake-setup
**Binary Distro
**wic split from OE-Core
**Bitbake config fragments
**RISC-V tune changes (part 2)
**Bitbake setup process/tooling
**switch classextend to use [filter] support from bitbake
**GUI screen shot QA test
**IDE Plugin development
**Layer Index
**Patchtest
**Security Tooling
**Swatbot
**Toaster
*If there are other areas we should have plans for, please let us know.

*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
