'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.3 M1 has passed QA and is due to release
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*The 6.1 kernel continues to have stability issues which appear to be introduced between 6.1.26 and 6.1.28, we’ve not seen the issue so far with 6.1.27. We know it happens on 32 and 64 bit x86 and occurs even with just one CPU enabled. This has not been seen by other kernel users which is a concern too.
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*We continue to see problematic intermittent failures on the autobuilder. We’re struggling to make progress against these and they are feeling overwhelming. We’re open to ideas on how we might try and address them. Experience shows that if left unresolved/ignored, people do end up hitting them in real world usage or during testing of their own products.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*The autobuilder test matrix has seen some revisions:
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
**to split out toolchain testing to a separate target
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
**remove some duplicate testing for efficiency
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
**optimize reproducibility testing to improve speed
*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.
We’re also about to add limited meta-clang testing to the test matrix.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
 
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
These should improve autobuilder test execution time but has made one test race issue much more common which will need to be addressed.
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026 (full details pending)

*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 are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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 that are currently unassigned for YP 4.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs

*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.
