'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We’re now in feature freeze for 3.0 and working on bug fixing for final release
*YP 5.0.18 has been released
*There are the following planned features which are still under consideration for 3.0:
*YP 6.0.1 is in QA.
**Systemd vs. sysvinit defaults (maybe for the poky alternative configuration tests)
*YP 6.1 M1 is due to build this week
**Removal of LSB and poky-lsb and replacement with alt config testing
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
**Final configuration of hash equivalency
*Patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage have merged in bitbake but OE-Core still needs significant work, help would be welcome with this.
*The sstate hash equivalency continues to have challenges:
*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 need to rework the client/server communication to scale to the autobuilder
*We have changed the xz and zstd decompression dependencies to make the build slightly more efficient and use the host tools for decompression
**there are some bugs in the code the autobuilder continues to expose
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
**we have cases where its not 100% clear what the correct behaviour should be
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**test cases are proving to be problematic to write in a maintainable way
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*Patch merging has been delayed due to vacations (RP and Ross) so the final feature patches aren’t resolved yet.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
*If anyone has any status items for the proj
**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


'''Planned Releases for YP 3.0 {2.8}:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M3 Release 6th Sept
*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=---
*M4 Cutoff 30th Sept - this will be YP 3.0.
*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/
*YP 3.0 {2.8 (M4)} Final Release 25th Oct
*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.

*YP 2.7.2 (Warrior) is planned for after YP 3.0 release.
*We have a list of issues we think are good places to start contributing: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=NEWCOMER
*YP 2.6.4 (Thud) is planned for after YP 2.7.2  release.
