*YP 6.0.1 is in QA.
*YP 5.3.3 is in review after QA.

*YP 6.0 M3 is the feature freeze for 6.0 which is our next LTS.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*YP 6.0 M3 is now due to build however there are many key changes needed still missing.
*Patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage have merged in bitbake but OE-Core still needs significant work, help would be welcome with this.
**Issues still pending:
*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
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
*We have changed the xz and zstd decompression dependencies to make the build slightly more efficient and use the host tools for decompression
**Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk)
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements.
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**SBOM/cve-check changes.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
**groff build race issues
*Issues that are mostly known quantities still needing work:
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
**x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
*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
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds
**Reconcile poky and OE-Core defaults templates.
**Resolve Fedora 43 selftest failures
**Fixing yocto-check-layer to work with –machines
*Issues that were resolved this week:
**Switching to pkg-config.
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup (further tweaks still being discussed)
*We are seeing issues with older versions of tar on RHEL 9 derived distros (selinux triggers due to xattrs)
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
