'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0 M3 is in QA
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*YP 3.1.32 was released
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*The QA screenshot changes were merged but not enabled as there were too many bugs still present.
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
*The go upgrade to 1.22 did merge
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
*We are seeing issues with devtool tests changing metadata and causing race issues. It is unclear why we’re seeing these now.
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
*The opkg lock issue with systemd images continues to be a significant concern for the release.
*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.
*The previously reported CVE database update issue on the autobuilder has not been addressed yet. This is causing higher numbers of CVEs to be reported on the autobuilder generated charts.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. We will trial qemuriscv64 support in M3 but remove it before the final LTS release as there is no sponsor for that support.
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
**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 5.0. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.0_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs

*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.
