*YP 5.3.4 is in QA
*YP 2.7 is out of QA but pending answers to some questions on the QA report and the final pieces of release process.
*YP 6.0 rc1 is in QA
*Huge kudos this week go to Armin for work on test automation of some of the manual tests
*There will be no patch review on Monday 4th May due to public holidays.
*We’ve merged ltp test automation which is now being run automatically on the autobuilder on a-full builds.
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
*Master continues to take patches, somewhat slowed by host specific build issues with vte-native
*There were some last minute changes to DISTRO_FEATURES behaviour to resolve some usability issues that users identified.
*WDD, our bug tracking metric is high and there are few people helping with bugs.
*There have been several issues in pseudo identified and these have been fixed in the various pseudo point releases. We will upgrade pseudo in 6.0.1 to pull these in.
*The 2.8 planning discussions are starting and there is a google doc summarising the discussions so far: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CNEKA4d0eT6-e0hnS2pwi7xdZ5_t6smpZO2HbaJGXbU/
*There have been issues with 403 errors from crates.io, there is a change in bitbake to use the preferred upstream urls via their CDN.
*If people are planning to work on specific things in 2.8 please let us know so we can incorporate this into our plans. If you’re interested in working on anything in the document, please also let us know or talk with us in one of the planning meetings.
*The kvm cpu features issue looks to be a host system CPU microcode issue and using the latest microcode appears to have resolved the issues.
*We have a new “newcomer” bug category which are bugs suited to someone new to the project. These can be seen here: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs
*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 but are trying to clear the backlog.


'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*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 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/
*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.
