'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*2.7.1 was released
*YP 6.0 was released, thanks everyone who contributed!
*2.6.3 has patches pending review and then will be built
*YP 5.0.18 is in QA.
*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
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*There are ongoing discussions on a few key topics which are summarized here for convenience. Please contribute if you have an interest in these areas:
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic:
**Running the testsuites for glibc/binutils/gcc
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**Moving lsb to its own layer
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**Removing poky-lsb in favour of some configuration fragments
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**Reproducibility
**groff build race issues
**Minimizing python2 dependencies
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
**Configuration of init systems
*Master (blacksail) is open for new development
*Changing poky’s init system default to systemd is running into a large number of testing failures on the autobuilder which puts that change at risk.
*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
*The autobuilder performance problem when stopping builds has been tracked down and fixed. The controller was also upgraded for some performance improvements (thanks Michael).*
*We are updating the project’s security team and welcome nominations and/or feedback: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119388716
*There are patches available which enable runqueue optimisations based on output comparisons of tasks. This removes the need to run later tasks if the output is unchanged and is based upon the previous hash equivalence server work. This feature should be a significant win for the users and is now working to a level where we’ll likely make this a key feature of the next release.
*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/>
*M2 Cutoff 14th July
*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=---
*M2 Release 26th July
*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/
*M3 Cutoff (Feature Freeze) 25th Aug
*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.
*M3 Release 6th Sept
