'''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
*Mailing lists are moving to groups.io instead of our current mailman setup. For various reasons the move was delayed and will take place on 3rd June. This shouldn’t impact users directly, more details will be sent to the mailing lists in due course.
*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.
*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
*There is also a discussion about recipe specific hosttools: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2467
*Adrian Bunk has done some much appreciated work in removing patches which are no longer needed or appropriate.
*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.
*Various upgrades and ptest dependency fixes merged. Work is still needed on ptest dependencies, particularly on perl modules.
*The project has adopted an updated policy on AI-generated contributions: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ai-assisted-contribution-policy.html
*Gcc 9 is now the default, thanks to Khem for working around the remaining bug in OE-Core
*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
*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:
**go recipes are not devtool upgradeable (#14944)
**recipetool create should add tag= for git SRC_URI (#15816)
*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

'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*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=---
*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.
