'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*Stephen is going to be unavailable for several weeks, please refer any queries to Richard
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*The final 2.8 planning meeting was held. The google doc summarising the discussions so far: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CNEKA4d0eT6-e0hnS2pwi7xdZ5_t6smpZO2HbaJGXbU/
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*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.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*Most items planned to be worked upon should now be in the bugzilla with appropriately detailed entries there.
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
*The project is planning to adopt SPDX license headers in its source code where practical, OE-Core now has the markup on its scripts too.
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
*Mailing lists are moving to groups.io instead of our current mailman setup on 27th May. This shouldn’t impact users directly, more details will be sent to the mailing lists in due course.
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
*We have a new “newcomer” bug category which are bugs suited to someone new to the project. These can be seen here: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs
*This change will mean “poky” as a combo-layer repository will no longer be needed or updated. This means autobuilder changes before we build 5.3 M3.
*We’re about ready to switch over to gcc 9 by default with one more issue needing to be resolved on mips.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*We’re likely going to change the tuning of qemux86 to something more modern
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
*We’re likely to drop openssl 1.0 and irda from OE-Core imminently
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026 (full details pending)


'''Planned Releases for YP 2.8:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M1 Cutoff June 9th
*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
*M1 Release June 21st
*There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarball and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting some kind of upstream feature merged to make this easier: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260
*M2 Cutoff 14th July
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*M2 Release 26th July
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.3_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*M3 Cutoff (Feature Freeze) 25th Aug
*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
*M3 Release 6th Sept
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT.
*M4 Cutoff 30th Sept
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*2.8 (M4) Final Release 25th Oct
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*Ongoing project development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing We need to continue to develop this as it will allow us to potentially find ways to fund specific work items.
