'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.1 was released
*YP 4.0.35 is due to release
*YP 4.1 M1 is due to build next week.
*YP 5.3.4 is in QA
*The Yocto Project Virtual Summit and OpenEmbedded Virtual Developer Meeting both seemed to go well, many good presentations, demos and good discussion. Thanks to everyone who helped organize it or attended.
*YP 6.0 rc1 is in QA
*There are some prototype scripts updating patchwork patch status for OpenEmbedded-Core and BitBake which is covering about 75% of the patches to the merged state along with revision information: https://patchwork.yoctoproject.org/project/oe-core/list/
*There will be no patch review on Monday 4th May due to public holidays.
*We have added a new “metrics” target on the autobuilder. This currently has some simple patch status tracking information and can generate a history graph but the hope is to extend this to CVE metrics and likely other things. If anyone has interest in helping here, please let Richard know. https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
*There are some known cve-check issues on kirkstone and dunfell, patches addressing those issues are in testing.
*There were some last minute changes to DISTRO_FEATURES behaviour to resolve some usability issues that users identified.
*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
*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.
*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.
*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.
*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/>
'''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 3.5. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_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
