'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M2 was released
* YP 5.0.15 was released
*We’re now in a much better position with reproducibility issues after around 20 patches merged addressing various problems. Some issues still remain but the bulk of the issues appear to be under control now.
* YP 5.3.1 is under review
*Due to the number and type of fixes found, the 3.0.2 rc1 build will be abandoned and rc2 built with the reproducibility fixes (as well as additional hashserv/multiconfig fixes). This delays 3.0.2 by a week but for a reasonable set of improvements.
* YP 6.0 M1 is in QA
*YP 3.0.2 should therefore enter QA within the next day or so.
* YP 4.0.33 is queued for QA after 6.0 M1
*Review of newly queued warrior (2.7.3) patches will happen later this week once 3.0.2 is in QA.
* YP 6.0 M2 is due next week!
*With the new fixes and a small fix to the autobuilder code, we managed the first green “full” build in nearly three months.
* Good progress has been made with the autobuilder issues and an M1 build is in QA but we still don’t have the stability in builds we need for reliable project operations.
*The incoming patch queue is roughly under control again
* There are currently 6 high open bugs, which will block M2:
*We’re collecting a list of companies, products and projects which use the Yocto Project on the wiki: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Project_Users Please add any you know are missing (or email Richard/Stephen who can add).
** Issues reusing binaries from fedora 43 (and maybe ubuntu 25.10) on older systems (patchelf triggered?) (#16074, #16087)
*One worrying metric is that the WDD is now on level with the high of 2017 so our worst defect weighting in two years. This is sadly unsurprising and directly correlated to a lack of participation in the triage process and a lack of people working on general bug fixing.
** x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
*The triage team is worried about attendance at triage meetings and the project is finding it hard to find people to help fix bugs. If anyone is willing to work on bugs, assistance would be greatly appreciated.
** AB-INT: build-sysroots: useradd command did not succeed (#16135)
** Hangs of the autobuilder controller (database locking?) (#16129)
** Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
* The number of intermittent failures affecting builds, both stable and development, continues to be problematic. Any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them and we often don’t have successful builds. Since we struggle to get help in addressing these, we need to change and start potentially blocking releases (including stable/LTS) until these get addressed in some way. We are holding some dedicated meetings to triage these and find ways of removing the failures from our builds which may include reducing testing.
* Patches are merging again but there is a backlog and we’ve had to prioritize simpler changes. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
 


'''Proposed YP 3.1 Milestone Dates'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M3 build date 2/24/2020
*We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to work on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C would be greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=661406&priority=High&priority=Medium%2B&product=Pseudo&query_format=advanced&resolution=---
*YP 3.1 M3 release date 3/6/2020
*There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder, any help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would be welcome! https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/
*YP 3.1 M4 build date  3/30/2020
*Many recipes in openembedded-core would benefit from a new recipe maintainer. Please look at https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes.
*YP 3.1 M4 release date  4/24/2020
