'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*The next status report will be published on 2019/1/2 as we expect things to slow down over the holiday season in many locations.
*YP 5.3 was released, thanks to everyone who helped make it happen!
*YP 2.5.2 rc1 is out of QA and should release today or tomorrow.
*YP 4.0.32 is in QA
*YP 2.7 M1 is in QA.
*The project will be taking a break from our regular meetings from 24th December until 4th January for the holidays.
*The distrodata bbclass in OE-Core is being removed since the tinfoil API provides a much better way to handle this kind of issue/data.
*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.
*We discovered potential hash collision issues with some of bitbake’s caching of objects so we are likely going to change to use sha256 everywhere including for sstate objects.
*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
*There are occasional issues continuing in oe-selftest which we’re struggling to get to the bottom of unfortunately.
*Further bitbake-setup changes under discussion for the new development cycle:
*There are some patches like the perl upgrade which are blocked on merging due to limited help in fixing fallout from them in layers like meta-openembedded. Khem in particular does a great job but we can’t rely on him alone.
**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.


'''Planned Releases for YP 2.6:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M1 Cutoff is in QA.
*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 M1 Release Target is Dec. 21, 2018
*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 Cutoff is Jan. 21, 2019
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*YP 2.7 M2 Release Target is Feb. 1, 2019
*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
*YP 2.7 M3 Cutoff is Feb. 25, 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 M3 Release Target is Mar. 8, 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 Cutoff is Apr. 1, 2019
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*YP 2.7 M4 Release Target is Apr. 26, 2019
*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.
