'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*3.1 rc2 has been through QA and is now being reviewed for release
*YP 5.0.18 has been released
*3.1 rc1 was abandoned prior to QA due to concerns about some recent changes
*YP 6.0.1 is in QA.
*YP 3.1 has been announced as an LTS release: https://www.yoctoproject.org/yocto-project-long-term-support-announced/
*YP 6.1 M1 is due to build this week
*We’re continue to work on bug fixing since if we do need to rebuild, those fixes can be potentially included
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*We are now considering planning for 3.2, there is a planning document at https://docs.google.com/document/d/100bTV-etO0joh6rAkcr7smlZ9iuENG_8BtaXs_vb54c/edit?usp=sharing
*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 planning process for 3.2 is likely to be more lightweight than in the past as the project simply doesn’t have the engineering resources that used to be available for new feature work at this time. We will continue to work on the items left over from previous releases in priority order, as well as trying to reduce the number of open bugs.
*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
 
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*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 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/
*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.
