'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M1 is out of QA and being prepared for release.
*YP 5.0.13 was released
*YP 2.5.2 was released on Jan. 4, 2019.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to be released
*YP 2.6.1 should build once the current patch queue from Armin has final review and is merged.
*YP 4.0.31 is in QA
*The hash equivalency server code merged, thanks to Joshua Watt for his patience in working through some of the details with that!
*Documentation updates related to many of the recent changes are in progress, thanks to all who have helped on these.
*Many different patches for upgrades, features and fixes continue to be merged and we should be mostly up to date with incoming patches.
*We plan to merge the documentation changes then stop updating the poky repository master branch.
*There do continue to be intermittent failures on the autobuilder, albeit at lower frequency than previously.
*We are now past the feature freeze for YP 5.3. To be accepted, patches that have a high bar until after we branch master from whinlatter.  Known issues:
*The cross-perl patchset from AlexK is building successfully on the autobuilder so others are requested to give feedback as its likely to merge soon based on the test results.
**check-layer tests are now running under nodistro instead of poky, so some layers are failing as they assume some DISTRO_FEATURES are enabled.
**Toaster is broken with bitbake-setup (#16012). Help moving to supporting non-poky layouts would be good if anyone is using Toaster.
**The patch/cve metrics jobs need reviewing to be sure they’re correct with bitbake-setup (#16013)
**The build performance jobs don’t know that poky and oe-core are the same so the charts are currently wrong (#16014)
**Help welcomed to resolve these issues!
*Upstream linux kernel just end-of-life’d 6.16 but whinlatter contains 6.16. The 6.17 kernel has run into issues we don’t have availability/time to resolve unfortunately so we will have to release with 6.16.
*YP 6.0 (wrynose) and the next LTS releases proposed timeline: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BlvtPxpYsxHkeL10DFBQzBI9q_1HIk9r2FPxlfsQ95U/edit?tab=t.0
*There are likely going to be breaking changes to the npm fetcher related to ongoing security concerns.


'''Planned Releases for YP 2.7:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M1 Release should happen shortly.
*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!
*YP 2.7 M2 Cutoff is Jan. 21, 2019
*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
*YP 2.7 M2 Release Target is Feb. 1, 2019
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*YP 2.7 M3 Cutoff is Feb. 25, 2019
*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
*YP 2.7 M3 Release Target is Mar. 8, 2019
*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.
*YP 2.7 M4 Cutoff is Apr. 1, 2019
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT.
*YP 2.7 M4 Release Target is Apr. 26, 2019
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*Ongoing project 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 as it will allow us to potentially find ways to fund specific work items.
