'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*Richard Purdie is on holiday and expects to return on the 24th October.
*YP 5.0.17 was released
*Patches for master are welcome on the mailing list and will be reviewed/tested, but will not be merged until RP has returned. Our patch wranglers Alex and Luca maintain staging branches at oe-core-contrib/abelloni/master-next and oe-core-contrib/lucaceresoli/master-next if you’d like to see what they’ve tested.
*YP 6.0 M3 was released
*YP 3.1.20 has been released. Thanks Steve!
*YP 4.0.35 is in QA
*YP 4.1 rc2 has passed QA and has been provisionally approved for release by the TSC. Release is scheduled for the 28th but may happen earlier if the documentation is finalized.
*YP 6.0 M4 is due to build
*YP 4.2 Proposed Timeline document is at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X5KM_3BiEsIrHBO93ULvYHQJ72NqS5U5jjwWo5bxTiY/edit?usp=sharing
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
*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. In particular there is a long-standing qemuppc failure which needs investigating (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14824)
*Various fixes have merged or are planned to merge before the M4 release build:
**Various CVE issue resolutions from CVE triage
**Reproducibility issues with strace/apr-util
**Make race in groff
**Shadow-native tallylog issue fix
**Upgrade of barebox to align with an LTS release
**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.


'''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
*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=---
*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 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/
*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.
*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.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRgNISmH0Ditf0bRtSezeR2XsgKIiSFJKF6KJUHpnzocNGzvKZbuSDKfmV3n64BFXDRqElBSJnhHtG4/pubchart?oid=1993375488&format=interactive
