'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
 
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*Next week M2 is due to build so if anyone has changes for that milestone, please send ASAP.
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*YP 4.0.2 has been through QA and is likely to be released in the next few days.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*A reproducibility issue was identified and raised a question on whether we could enable              an old QA check for these kinds of issues (‘buildpaths’ in insane.bbclass). Some bugs were fixed in the test but is has highlighted several reproducibility issues. Some have been fixed but others remain:
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
**docs issues in lib32-vala, rpm, lib32-gtk-doc, vala, gtk-doc
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
**musl issue in ltp
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
**multilib issues in lib32-vala, vala, rpm (may overlap docs)
*This change will mean “poky” as a combo-layer repository will no longer be needed or updated. This means autobuilder changes before we build 5.3 M3.
**qemuarm64 kernel-devsrc issue (Bruce looking into)
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
**meta-virt issues in xen-tools (Christopher looking into)
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
**meta-gplv2 issues in mc, tar
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
**lttng-modules .debug issue on beaglebone, edgerouter, and qemumips
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026 (full details pending)
*Fixing these will allow us to enable buildpaths by default which should allow more people to spot reproducibility issues.
*There is a discussion about layer setup tooling in the bitbake-layers discussion on the OE-Core list, input is welcome from those with an interest in this.
*There is also a RFC series about improving the eSDK tooling workflows from Alex Kanavin which may be of interest.
*Code to monitor the /proc/pressure interface has been added and there is a patch to optionally allow bitbake to reduce the number of processes running depending on system load, which it is hoped may help some of our autobuilder intermittent issues (thanks Aryaman and Randy).
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT

*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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 are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 4.1 See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.1_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*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
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.3_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.

*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*Ongoing project 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 as it will allow us to potentially find ways to fund specific work items.
