'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.33 has been released
*There is a proposal and proof of concept for changes to layer configuration and setup out for discussion/review: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2463
*YP 5.0.16 is in TSC review
*The proposed layer changes will likely be more invasive than many of the recent changes but also incorporate a number of new features and improvements which will make them useful to everyone and allow various cleanups of existing code.
*YP 6.0 M2, 5.3.2, & 4.0.34 are in QA.
*There is also a discussion about recipe specific hosttools: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2467
**We are aware of changes in QA timelines and are discussing how to address them.
*The Yocto Project wiki has undergone significant cleanup, mostly with removal of obsolete pages/information. We plan to migrate the remaining data to a different solution. If anyone is able to help with review of content, please let us know.
*We have issues which need further work that will block M3:  
*The project has adopted an updated policy on AI-generated contributions: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ai-assisted-contribution-policy.html
**x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
*There was a widely reported security issue with musl+openssh. The project has published details on the situation here: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-security/message/1728
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
*We had some positive response to our request for help with the issues highlighted from the bug triage team last week. Further help is requested with the following devtool & recipetool issues:
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds
**go recipes are not devtool upgradeable (#14944)
*We also have issues we need to resolve before release:
**recipetool create should add tag= for git SRC_URI (#15816)
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup.
*We have moved a couple of planned releases forward by a week to avoid needing to make a release during the end of the year holidays.
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
**6.1.1:    2026-11-23
**Kernel rust support.
**6.0.5:    2026-11-30
**Switching to pkg-config.
**5.0.22:  2026-12-07
**Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk)
**6.2 M1:  2026-12-14
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
**DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements.
**SBOM/cve-check changes.
**Reconcile poky and OE-Core defaults templates.
*OE-Core switched to enabling a hash equivalence server by default.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and the high number of intermittent build failures is 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 project has a booth at Embedded World next week, feel free to come and say Hi if you’re there!
