'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.0.1 was released.
* YP 5.0.20 is under review.
*YP 3.1 M1 rc8 is in QA
* YP 6.1 M3 is due to build and we are at feature freeze
*YP 3.1 M1 took a record number of build attempts due to various issues which only appeared during the rc builds.
* There are issues with changes in bot/AI protection at github.com which are affecting our CI.  
*Despite a successful rc8 build (which still had reproducible build test failures) there are a number of concerns, particularly as there appears to be very slow builds for some ‘pathological’ hashequiv scenarios. There has been some progress over the weekend on identifying the causes of that and partially addressing them.
* Most M3 changes have merged, we want to mitigate the github issues before building M3.
*There remains a growing set of intermittent autobuilder failures which occur with varying frequencies. We’re struggling to find anyone with time/interest to resolve these and they are becoming problematic for reviewing/testing patches and  triaging builds.
* There is a new meta-openjdk layer: https://github.com/amarula/meta-openjdk https://lore.kernel.org/yocto-patches/xBB4.1788187111192557019.ULaN@lists.yoctoproject.org/T/#u
*The TSC is working on LTS plans, productive discussions have been had and a new policy on handling this and stable releases should be available in the coming weeks.
* 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 are continuing to collect ideas for YP 3.1 in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UKZIGe88-eq3-pOPtkAvFAegbQDzhy_f4ye64yjnABc/edit?usp=sharing
* 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:
*Due to holidays in EU/US, the next status report will be sent in early January (likely 7th). If there is anything critical to report this will happen as needed.
** 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
*Progress was made on some of the risc-v speed differences in qemu which should help some of the autobuilder intermittent failures, thanks Trevor!


'''Proposed YP 3.1 Milestone Dates'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M1 is in QA
*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 3.1 M1 release date 12/13/2019
*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 3.1 M2 build date 1/20/2020
*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.
