'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*Stephen is going to be unavailable for several weeks, please refer any queries to Richard
*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 2.6.2 was released!
*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 2.5.3 is likely to be released imminently
*There is also a discussion about recipe specific hosttools: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2467
*YP 2.7 rc2 (warrior) is currently going through QA.
*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.
*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.
*The project has adopted an updated policy on AI-generated contributions: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ai-assisted-contribution-policy.html
*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
*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
*Patches are continuing to flow into master, slightly impeded by holidays/vacation in some parts of the world.
*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:
*WDD, our bug tracking metric is sharply rising as there are few people helping with bugs.
**go recipes are not devtool upgradeable (#14944)
*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/
**recipetool create should add tag= for git SRC_URI (#15816)
*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.
*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.
**6.1.1:    2026-11-23
**6.0.5:    2026-11-30
**5.0.22:  2026-12-07

'''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.
