'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*M3 has been built and is currently in QA
*YP 6.0.3 is in QA.
*There are a small number of upgrades which merged after M3 as it was felt better to be up to date in these cases along with various other fixes. The project is now very much in feature freeze and bug fixing working toward the final release though.
*YP 6.1 M3 is due in one week and this will be the feature freeze point for YP 6.1.
*The OpenEmbedded election for its TSC members is now in the nomination phase.
*For 6.1 M3 our plans are to merge rpm 6, merge openssl 4 and update to the 7.2 kernel. If there are any other major changes planned, please let us know ASAP!
*For the stable releases, the autobuilder-helper changes have now merged and the resulttool patches are also backported on the relevant -next branches. This means we’re ready to build both 2.5.3 and 2.6.2.
*AI scrapers and bots continue to impact the infrastructure, taking huge amounts of time for our sysadmins and with a significant cost impact to the project.
*We continue to try and keep up to date with upstream releases through the AUH, big thanks to those sending version updates and fixing version update issues. It is worth noting that the ‘success’ updates do still need work on the commit message changelogs and much of this work is being pushed to Richard.
*There are two AB-INT issues which are in a position where others could now help, as detailed in https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/message/242105:
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue
We get a lot of comments about these being hard to reproduce or work on, in both cases, these have specific well defined things which need to be done and a basic understanding of what the issue relates to, if not the actual fix.
*Remaining intermittent build failures of concern:
**other qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes


'''Planned Releases for YP 2.7:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M3 Cutoff was Feb. 25, 2019
*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=---
*YP 2.7 M3 Release Target was Mar. 8, 2019
*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 2.7 M4 Cutoff is Apr. 1, 2019
*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 M4 Release Target is Apr. 26, 2019

'''Planned upcoming dot releases:'''<br/>
'''New to the project?'''<br/>
*YP 2.5.3 (Sumo) will be targeted for build as soon as it is ready..
*We have a list of issues we think are good places to start contributing: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=NEWCOMER
*YP 2.6.2 (Thud) will be targeted after YP 2.5.3 is done.
