'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.6.3 has been released.
*YP 5.0.17 was released
*This release which was 2.8 will now become 3.0.
*YP 6.0 M3 was released
*The sstate hash equivalency continues to have challenges:
*YP 4.0.35 is in QA
**performance of the hash server is not able to scale to the autibuilder’s load
*YP 6.0 M4 is due to build
**there are some bugs in the code the autobuilder continues to expose
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
**we have cases where its not 100% clear what the correct behaviour should be
*Various fixes have merged or are planned to merge before the M4 release build:
**test cases are proving to be problematic to write in a maintainable way
**Various CVE issue resolutions from CVE triage
*On a more positive note, some of the key performance issues were identified and fixed so performance doesn’t regress for usage without hash equivalence. Several corruption issues and other key fixes to runqueue also merged.
**Reproducibility issues with strace/apr-util
*Jason Wessel finally tracked down our mystery glibc-locale bug, which was not a pseudo issue. Thanks and kudos to Jason!
**Make race in groff
*General patch merging is currently delayed along with patch feedback due to the hash equivalence issues and lack of bandwidth to progress everything at once.
**Shadow-native tallylog issue fix
*We still need to make a decision on systemd or sysvinit defaults as the init system.
**Upgrade of barebox to align with an LTS release
*We are a week away from the 3.0 feature freeze.
**Implementation of a wrapper for openat2, fixing Fedora 44 beta build failures
**Sbom-cve-check upgrade (along with dependencies)
*Issues still pending:
**32bit x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**Intermittent qemu boot failures of qemuarmv5 (and possibly qemuarm) since the last kernel upgrade
**Intermittent wic failures on the autobuilder
*At this point we will likely run the release build as the remaining issues aren’t critical to end users and we have no clear timeframe for resolution of them
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.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
*The final whinlatter build is happening this week.


'''Planned Releases for YP 3.0 {2.8}:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M3 Cutoff (Feature Freeze) 25th Aug
*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=---
*M3 Release 6th Sept
*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/
*M4 Cutoff 30th Sept - this will be YP 3.0.
*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 3.0 {2.8 (M4)} Final Release 25th Oct
