'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7.3 and 3.0.2 have been released.
*YP 5.0.17 is due to be released
*YP 3.1 has been announced as an LTS release: https://www.yoctoproject.org/yocto-project-long-term-support-announced/
*YP 6.0 M3 is in QA
*We are now past M3 feature freeze. A number of key issues have been addressed, thanks to everyone who contributed:
*YP 4.0.35 is queued for QA
**psplash systemd race issues fixed (Thanks Scott)
*We have converted over to sbom-cve-check and dropped cve-check. This has caused a significant increase in CVEs reported, these are being triaged.
**make mips issue root caused and glibc fix pulled in (Thanks Victor/Khem)
*Issues with pending work needed:
**ltp upgrade resolved (Thanks Petr)
**32bit x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**util-linux update resolved (Thanks Pierre-Jean)
**Reports of pseudo errors on Fedora 44 beta related to openat2()
**Uninative tumbleweed issue resolved (Thanks Michael)
**Intermittent qemu boot failures of qemuarmv5 (and possibly qemuarm) since the last kernel upgrade
**libgpg-error upgrade (Thanks Alex)
**Meta-oe cve layer filtering under new tooling (metrics script tweak?)
*There were many other fixes and upgrades, thanks all!
**Reprodicubility issues with strace/apr-util after gnulib macro changes (patches in testing)
*The remaining issues we need to look at addressing before we build M3 are:
*There was disruption to git services last week due to scraping attacks against the servers. This resulted in connection issues whilst those were mitigated, particularly the git protocol access.
**bind upgrade (needs libuv maintainer fix and resend from Armin)
git:// protocol access to git.yoctoproject.org and git.openembeded.org is deprecated and going forward https:// URLs should be used to access git repositories. We are aiming to discontinue git protocol use.
**coreutils ptest blocked on libmodule-build-perl reproducibility issue
*The recent wic changes will need wic support files to be placed in files/wic within layers going forwards.
**Locked signature selftest failure
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic, including the emergence of new issues (newer kernel version?). We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
**SystemExit() intermittent selftest failure
*The final kirkstone build has taken place and we’re no longer planning to merge patches on this branch.
**pseudo sysroot high priority bug
*If you have any final patches for whinlatter, please get these sent to the list ASAP.
**gcc buildtools tarball solution for centos7 support
*Recipe upgrades are now much less likely to be accepted unless there is a pressing need, ideally these should be held until 3.1 is released and development for 3.2 is started. We do not have a tracking branch for 3.2 as we’d like to focus people on 3.1 right now.
*Bug metrics are not good with a rise in WDD when typically it should be falling for this point in a release cycle.


'''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
