'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*2.8 M1 has been built and rc2 is now undergoing QA (rc1 ran into an issue with a broken autobuilder worker).
*YP 6.0 was released, thanks everyone who contributed!
*Stephen continues to be unavailable, please refer any queries to Richard
*YP 5.0.18 is in QA.
*Mailing lists are moving to groups.io instead of our current mailman setup. This shouldn’t impact users directly, more details will be sent to the mailing lists before the transfer. THe Yocto Project lists will move first, followed by OE, likely a week later.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*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
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic:
*We’re seeing an increasing number of intermittent failures which affect the autobuilder builds, causing problems for merging patches and for release builds. One cause, a long standing problem with gpg signing testing has finally been root caused and fixed. Several others keep appearing. There is a backlog of them in the bugzilla and we’re opening bugs for the new ones.
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
*M1 isn’t of ideal quality, there are three ptest timeouts (2.7 had none). The ptest failure rate is however much improved. There is nobody actively working on some of the ptest timeout issues so holding the milestone build wouldn’t have made much difference but its a worrying sign for the project quality.
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*M1 also has a couple of MIPS issues with the gcc9 upgrade. There doesn’t appear to be much interest in investigating and fixing these which raises questions about supporting the architecture within the project.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
*There was a Yocto Project related article in LWN: https://lwn.net/Articles/788626/
**groff build race issues
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
*Master (blacksail) is open for new development
*We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. We have a roadmap document in Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12xgAzSjDj5zVlo4eQIbiv1s3QMjtBTCvBFY3_T7OPto
*We are updating the project’s security team and welcome nominations and/or feedback: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119388716
*Monday 25th May is a public holiday in the UK and USA so there will be no patch review call.


'''Planned Releases for YP 2.8:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M1 Cutoff June 9th
*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=---
*M1 Release June 21st
*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/
*M2 Cutoff 14th July
*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.
*M2 Release 26th July
*For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing
