'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.1 M1 was built and been through QA with one kernel issue raised. We will likely release and fix this for M2, pending TSC approval.
*YP 5.0.14 was released
*YP 3.1.17 rc1 was built but failed on the autobuilder, partly due to infrastructure issues but also failing ptests in openssl, likely due to expired certificates. As of writing,  rc2 is building after infrastructure fixes but the ptest fixes were insufficient. If there are no other issues we will aim to release rc2 and fix the openssl ptest regressions for 3.1.18 pending TSC approval.
*YP 5.3 rc4 has passed QA and is under review
*Patches have continued to merge into master but have been slowed down by various intermittent issues showing up on the autobuilder:
*The 5.3 QA report is available and no major release blocking issues were found so we should be able to finally make the release.
**We have bumped the minimum make version for the project and added a make-native dependency for perl to avoid bugs in old make 4.1 versions (particularly on ubuntu 18.04).
*There was an announcement about the new project roles: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2207
**There are some fixes for potential deadlock issues in the bitbake UI on the bitbake list for review
*Welcome to Paul and Yoann in their new roles and huge thanks to Steve!
**We also have some tweaks to the wget fetcher to allow infrastructure mirror races to be avoided.
*Patches for master are merging and the builds are looking greener, there is a problem with the test result regression reports still causing failures as well as some check-layer issues.
*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
*We have isolated the Fedora43 workers until we can root cause the binary problems it was causing when the sstate was shared to older systems
*Further bitbake-setup changes under discussion for the new development cycle:
**defaulting to a common sstate directory and hashequiv server
**Allowing symlinking of local existing repos into the build instead of fetching
*The project is exploring the idea of applying for funding for security related work. If anyone (individual or consultancies) has ideas, please talk to Paul/Richard/TSC. This is an opportunity to work on those issues you never have time/funding for!
*We are considering entirely disabling the npm fetcher in bitbake due to the security issues until those are resolved


'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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 that are currently unassigned for YP 4.1 See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.1_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*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 identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 6.0. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_6.0_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.
