'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*Stephen is going to be unavailable for several weeks, please refer any queries to Richard
*YP 4.0.34 was released.
*YP 2.6.2 was released!
*YP 5.3.3 is approved for release.
*YP 2.5.3 is likely to be released imminently
*YP 6.0 M3 is the feature freeze for 6.0 which is our next LTS.
*YP 2.7 rc2 (warrior) is currently going through QA.
*YP 6.0 M3 is now due to build however there are still key changes missing.
*The final two members of the new YP TSC were elected, Denys and Armin. The TSC will therefore now start to discuss how its going to establish itself and operate.
*Issues still pending:
*Huge thanks to Joshua Watt for diving in and helping file some ptest bugs and helping sort some missing tweaks with resulttool, it was just appreciated
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
*Patches are continuing to flow into master, slightly impeded by holidays/vacation in some parts of the world.
**Converting scripts/run-cvecheck to sbom-cve-check
*WDD, our bug tracking metric is sharply rising as there are few people helping with bugs.
**DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements.
*The 2.8 planning discussions are starting and there is a google doc summarising the discussions so far: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CNEKA4d0eT6-e0hnS2pwi7xdZ5_t6smpZO2HbaJGXbU/
**RHEL 9 xattrs/selinux/tar issue
*If people are planning to work on specific things in 2.8 please let us know so we can incorporate this into our plans. If you’re interested in working on anything in the document, please also let us know or talk with us in one of the planning meetings.
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
**RHEL 10/openSUSE Leap 16.0/Ubuntu 26.04 support
*Issues that are mostly known quantities still needing work:
**x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds
**Fixing yocto-check-layer to work with --machines (many fixes merged)
*Issues that were resolved this week:
**Sbom-cve-check added
**Replacement of runtlp with kirk (Thanks Daniel!)
**bitbake-setup vscode integration
**Fedora 43 selftest failures
**Reconciling poky and OE-Core defaults templates.
*We have rationalized the tags in various project repositories, more information can be found here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2312 Whilst controversial, this will make the tag list much easier to understand for users, guide users to use the right tags going forward and remove confusion about whether any tags were “missed”, at the expense that some CI setups may need adjusting short term.
*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.
*The CFP closing date for the Yocto Project Workshop at Embedded Recipes 2026 has been extended until April 7th, please submit a proposal if you’d like to present: https://pretalx.com/yocto-embedded-recipes-2026/cfp

'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M4 Cutoff was Apr. 1, 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 M4 Release Target is Apr. 26, 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/
*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.
