*YP 5.0.17 was released
* YP 5.0.20 is under review.
*YP 6.0 M3 was released
* YP 6.1 M3 is due to build and we are at feature freeze
*YP 4.0.35 is in QA
* There are issues with changes in bot/AI protection at github.com which are affecting our CI.  
*YP 6.0 M4 is due to build
* Most M3 changes have merged, we want to mitigate the github issues before building M3.
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
* 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
*Various fixes have merged or are planned to merge before the M4 release build:
* 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.
**Various CVE issue resolutions from CVE triage
* 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:
**Reproducibility issues with strace/apr-util
** Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**Make race in groff
** aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue
**Shadow-native tallylog issue fix
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.
**Upgrade of barebox to align with an LTS release
*Remaining intermittent build failures of concern:
**Implementation of a wrapper for openat2, fixing Fedora 44 beta build failures
**other qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
**Sbom-cve-check upgrade (along with dependencies)
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*Issues still pending:
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
**32bit x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
*Progress was made on some of the risc-v speed differences in qemu which should help some of the autobuilder intermittent failures, thanks Trevor!
**Intermittent qemu boot failures of qemuarmv5 (and possibly qemuarm) since the last kernel upgrade
**Intermittent wic failures on the autobuilder
*At this point we will likely run the release build as the remaining issues aren’t critical to end users and we have no clear timeframe for resolution of them
git:// protocol access to git.yoctoproject.org and git.openembeded.org is deprecated and going forward https:// URLs should be used to access git repositories. We are aiming to discontinue git protocol use.
*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.
*The final whinlatter build is happening this week.
