'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.2 M1 has two major QA issues, one for beaglebone and one for beagleplay
*YP 5.2.3 was released.
**The issues are being investigated:
*YP 5.0.12 was released.
**https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15703
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
**https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15704
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
*YP 5.0.6 is ready to be released
*We have now updated to the 6.16 linux kernel
*Feedback from Richard has now been given on the meta-clang merging patches which are not ready yet. Development work is needed to move this forward, a copy and paste into core isn’t enough and it will not merge without help from people.
*There are clang/llvm performance improvements we plan to merge before building 5.3 (Thanks Ross!)
*There are discussions about how to implement “manifest” based fetchers to handle cargo, go and npm amongst others. We need to solve this problem in a way which everyone can work with but there is limited feedback or involvement in the patch review. Help is needed here to get this right and solve the long standing problems with these forms of software.
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3, work is currently being done to migrate the autobuilder to use it.
*Patches using config fragment and include_all are being worked on in master-next for OE-Core.
*This change will mean “poky” as a combo-layer repository will no longer be needed or updated.
*There is a proposed fix for some native class extension handling code bugs/issues however that fix creates new dependency problems and will require wider metadata changes.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
*We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026

*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

*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.
