*Bug Triage meeting Thursday June 6th at 7:30am PDT (https://zoom.us/j/454367603)
*YP 5.0.18 has been released
*Monthly Project Meeting Tuesday June 4th at 8am PDT (https://zoom.us/j/990892712)

*Twitch - Next event is Tuesday 11th June at 8am PDT (https://www.twitch.tv/yocto_project)
*YP 6.1 M1 is due to build this week
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*Patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage have merged in bitbake but OE-Core still needs significant work, help would be welcome with this.
*We have merged support for `devtool upgrade --stable` and the upstream-stable-release-point bbclass. We hope to use this to track upstream projects with known good stable release series, but we need input and discussion on what the criteria should be. Please participate in the discussion on the OE-Architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119437109
*We have changed the xz and zstd decompression dependencies to make the build slightly more efficient and use the host tools for decompression
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**groff build race issues
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
*We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. We have a roadmap document in Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12xgAzSjDj5zVlo4eQIbiv1s3QMjtBTCvBFY3_T7OPto


'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*2.8 M1 is nearly upon us with just under a week left for the remaining features/patches.
*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=---
*Stephen continues to be unavailable, please refer any queries to Richard
*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/
*Mailing lists are moving to groups.io instead of our current mailman setup. This shouldn’t impact users directly, more details will be sent to the mailing lists before the transfer. THe Yocto Project lists will move first, followed by OE, likely a week later.
*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 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
*For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing
*Uninative 2.5 was released which supports gcc 9. This should fix issues for fedora 30 builds and allow the bringup of fedora 30 workers in the autobuilder too.
*ARM native builds are now working on the autobuilder as well as KVM accelerated ARM ptest and ltp testing.
*There are ongoing concerns about perl module dependencies. Tim and Richard have applied bandaids to solve some ptest issues but we really need work in this area if there are any perl experts interested.
*Many further ptests fixes have merged, thanks to all for the contributions.
