'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''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.
**A potential fix merged for the first issue, the second remains unresolved, kernel stable upgrades did not fix it.
*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 5.2 M2 is due to build next week and we haven’t resolved M1 yet!
*We have now updated to the 6.16 linux kernel
*YP 5.0.6 has been approved for release
*There are clang/llvm performance improvements we plan to merge before building 5.3 (Thanks Ross!)
*YP 5.1.2 and 4.0.24 are queued in QA
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3, work is currently being done to migrate the autobuilder to use it.
*There is some discussion about toolchain selection mechanisms via virtual/cross-cc providers on the architecture list which could help with clang integration.
*This change will mean “poky” as a combo-layer repository will no longer be needed or updated.
*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. Thanks to everyone already involved in the discussions.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*We were able to upgrade rust to 1.81, thanks!
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
*Various other key changes were merged (fragment handling fix, aclocal cleanup, qemu options fixes, flag ??= support, pytest improvements, deb multilib fixes and more)
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
*A native class extension fix merged but it may cause some wider metadata issues short term since new dependencies are being exposed.
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026
*The 5.2 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, thanks to all who have contributed so far!

*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
