'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.8 M2 is due for release this week
*YP 4.0.35 was released
*YP 2.6.3 is in QA
*YP 5.3.4 is due to release, pending TSC approval
*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
*YP 6.0 is due to release, pending TSC approval
*This release which was 2.8 will now become 3.0
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge
*The project is working on some mentor and mentee opportunities. Please see the separate email from Nicolas on the yocto list about this.
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic
*Patches to bitbake to enable the task scheduler to react to “equivalent” build output have merged. There is more information about this major change in a separate email:
*Patch review/merging is slow due to public holidays clashing with a review call
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2019-August/285300.html
*Master is open for new development.
*It is hoped this change should improve productivity and reduce rebuilds.
*In making some of these changes, there were some API changes in bitbake, notably the removal of the bb.build.FuncFailed exception, the signature generator task representation changed and there were some siggen function API changes.
libx11-diet was removed as its not really appropriate on a modern locale aware system.


'''Planned Releases for YP 3.0 {2.8}:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M2 is out of QA and being reviewed.

*M2 Release 26th July
*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/
*M3 Cutoff (Feature Freeze) 25th Aug
*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.
*M3 Release 6th Sept
*For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing
