*YP 5.3.3 was released.
* YP 5.0.20 is under review.
*YP 5.0.17 is in QA
* YP 6.1 M3 is due to build and we are at feature freeze
*YP 6.0 M3 is the feature freeze for 6.0 which is our next LTS.
* There are issues with changes in bot/AI protection at github.com which are affecting our CI.  
*YP 6.0 M3 is now due to build however there are still key changes missing.  
* Most M3 changes have merged, we want to mitigate the github issues before building M3.
*Issues with pending work needed:
* 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
**Converting scripts/run-cvecheck to sbom-cve-check
* 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.
**32bit x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
* 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:
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds (need tags)
** Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**Ubuntu 26.04 support (need worker adding for testing)
** aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue
*Issues that have patches ready to merge:
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.
**DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements.
*Remaining intermittent build failures of concern:
**Fixing yocto-check-layer to work with --machines
**other qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
**RHEL 9 xattrs/selinux/tar issue
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
**RHEL 10/openSUSE Leap 16.0 support
*Progress was made on some of the risc-v speed differences in qemu which should help some of the autobuilder intermittent failures, thanks Trevor!
*Issues that need investigation
**Reports of pseudo errors on Fedora 44 beta
*The proposed wic changes will need wic support files to be placed in files/wic within layers going forwards.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic, including the emergence of new issues (newer kernel version?). We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
*We are aware of our git hosting giving 502 Bad Gateway errors, this is being investigated
*The CFP for the Yocto Project Workshop at Embedded Recipes 2026 closes today: https://pretalx.com/yocto-embedded-recipes-2026/cfp
