'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We are now a week away from feature freeze for 4.3.
*YP 4.0.35 was released
*YP 4.0.12 is pending TSC approval and due to release
*YP 5.3.4 is due to release, pending TSC approval
*YP 4.2.3 is in QA
*YP 6.0 is due to release, pending TSC approval
*We merged the 6.4 kernel and were able to resolve the preempt-rt issue (thanks Paul!) however intermittent hangs on qemuppc still remain as well as questions of x86 reliability on the autobuilder.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge
*There are patches pending which remove source control revisions from PV and move them to PKGV, further simplifying WORKDIR paths and generally improving the code and the way AUTOREV works. This allows SRCPV to be removed as it is no longer needed. We believe all review discussion has been resolved at this point.
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic
*Intermittent autobuilder issues, autobuilder hardware problems and large numbers of very intensive rebuilds with low sstate reuse are causing challenges in keeping patches flowing. Some intermittent issues were identified and resolved.
*Patch review/merging is slow due to public holidays clashing with a review call
*Glibc 2.38 merged and a new uninative release was made.
*Master is open for new development.
*We continue to see intermittent ptest failures for glib-networking and openssh, help would be much appreciated.
*CVE metrics are still high but much reduced for master, thanks!
*We’re happy to be able to announce that some of the work in the RFQ will now be progressing, specifically that:
**Marta Rybczynska will be working on the security topic
**Alexander Kanvin will be working on the core workflow topic
*Other topic areas will likely be announced soon too.


'''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: patchtest, layerindex, 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 4.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*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.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
