'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.2 M3 has been through QA with one issue found
*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 5.0.8 is in QA
**Help in debugging and fixing this would be very welcome.
*We are now at feature freeze for YP 5.2
*YP 4.0.28 is in QA.
*We have a new dashboard index page linking to key tools/data pages within the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/ . Help on further improvements is welcome. We are aiming to drive the data from the autobuilder.
*Patches continue to merge into master for upgrades and fixes.
*Welcome improvements on syncing an sstate cache with a hash equivalence server were merged allowing more efficient hash equivalence server database cleanup, thanks!
*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.
*Bitbake python function library files were not always being cached correctly in bitbake’s parse cache, this was fixed.
*The clang build time and size increases continue to cause significant concern.
*We started to merge gcc 15 fixes, particularly in native recipes as this will likely cause problems during the next release cycle with newer distro versions if we do not act.
*Patches to improve gomod support in devtool merged.
*There were a number of minor version upgrades for bugs and CVE related issues.
*The main mirroring issues left are around “downloadfilename” support in urls which likely needs to be rewritten.
*The recent annoying qemumips64 intermittent bug on the autobuilder looks to be a mips specific kernel issue which has been fixed upstream. We continue to wonder whether we should test mips/powerpc given the lack of interest in helping resolve issues.
*OE_SHARED_UMASK was added to control the umask used for files created in the shared DL_DIR and SSTATE_DIR directories.
*There are several fetcher changes pending including the ability to specify both a tag and a source revision.
*For M2, the following changes have been mentioned as possibilities:
**bitbake-setup
**wic split from OE-Core
**RISC-V tune changes (part 2)
**switch classextend to use [filter] support from bitbake

*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
