'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.2.4 is in QA and will be the final release in the 3.2 series.
*YP 5.0.18 has been released
*We’re continuing to merge significant changes into master as patches are tested and reviewed. This included many version upgrades(thanks Alex) bringing us back up to date after the pause during stabilization.
*YP 6.0.1 is in QA.
*The multiconfig changes in bitbake continue to cause problems, we could do with simpler test cases to reproduce issues rather than huge builds.
*YP 6.1 M1 is due to build this week
*There is an effort underway to triage the remaining reported CVEs against master and improve our presentation with regard to CVE tracking.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*We have patches in review to enable SMP for qemu for arm and x86 machines
*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 also have a proposal to change the default x86 QEMU emulation configuration to something more recent/modern
*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 appear to have serial IRQ handling issues with qemuppc and would welcome help from anyone with knowledge in that area.
*We have changed the xz and zstd decompression dependencies to make the build slightly more efficient and use the host tools for decompression
*We have switched some gnome components from gtk-doc to gi-docgen in line with upstream
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
*Several of the PRServ rework patches have now merged (thanks Paul).
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
*Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur and are now at a record high level. 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 We are working to identify the load pattern on the infrastructure that seems to trigger these.
**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/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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 that are currently unassigned for YP 3.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.3_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*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/
*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.
*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.
