'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0.2 was released
*YP 5.0.17 was released
*YP 5.2 M2 is now due to be built
*YP 6.0 M3 was released
*We’re mostly up to date with the ‘standard’ patches but there are a number of trickier patch series or isolated changes pending. These are hard to make review decisions on due to limited wider review or being hard to concisely articulate concerns
*YP 4.0.35 is in QA
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
*YP 6.0 M4 is due to build
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*Various fixes have merged or are planned to merge before the M4 release build:
**kernel fitimage changes from Adrian
**Various CVE issue resolutions from CVE triage
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
**Reproducibility issues with strace/apr-util
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
**Make race in groff
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately. Rust 1.77 has a much smaller list of problems at least in initial testing.
**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/>
*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!
*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 identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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/
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*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.
*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.
*For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing
*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.
