'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We’re now in feature freeze for 3.0 and working on bug fixing for final release
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*We have not built M3 yet as there are still three issues that need to be resolved:
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
**strace ptest regressions with 5.1/5.2 kernels
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
**systemd timeouts on mips
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
**hashequiv server rewrite
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
*The strace regressions will be discussed with the kernel community, the best workaround may be to lower the individual test timeouts so one the affected individual tests fail rather than all tests timing out.
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
*The qemumips issue with systemd is puzzling as its happening in hwdb and hwdb should be generated in advance anyway. Investigation is ongoing about why its being regenerated, a workaround is to increase the timeout as mips is just slow (it does complete eventually, its just marginal).
*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.
*The hashequiv server changes are being tested in master-next
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
It is planned to build M3 this week with the workarounds mentioned above worst case. Its expected there would be further hashequiv fixing during M4.
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
*We hope to make up time during M4 by having M3 at high quality and take advantage of our automation.
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
*Documentation - Due to illness Scott is unavailable for the next month or two so doc patches will be handled by Richard or Ross in the short term. We’ll likely limit them to correctness issues and defer any substantial new text. If anyone has availability and skills to work on the manuals please talk to us. We’re aware there is a patch backlog.
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026 (full details pending)
*If anyone has any status items for the project they’d like to add to the weekly reports, please email Richard+Stephen.


'''Planned Releases for YP 3.0 {2.8}:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M3 Release 6th Sept
*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!
*M4 Cutoff 30th Sept - this will be YP 3.0.
*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
*YP 3.0 {2.8 (M4)} Final Release 25th Oct
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*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
*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.
*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.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*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.
