'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0 rc4 is in QA.
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*YP 3.1.33, The final dunfell build will follow 5.0 into QA.
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*YP 4.0.18 is behind 3.1.33 for QA.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*YP 5.0 rc2 was abandoned after issues with git in buildtools were found caused by a curl regression. 5.0 rc3 had further buildtools issues from configuration problems. 5.0 rc4 was built cleanly and went into QA to replace rc2.
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
*The master branch has diverged from scarthgap and we’re trying to keep up to date with incoming patches there.
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
*There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability as well as build performance graphing improvements.
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
*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.
Please consider signing this to show support for those changes, which would improve our ability to analyze CVEs, and that of many other projects (including other distros) to do so too.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the lack of CPE information is problematic for us and we are considering what alternatives we have.
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
*Some CVE information is being provided for issues in meta-openembedded, this has been provided with help from the Sovereign Tech Fund.
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
*The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
**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: 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 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_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.
