'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We’re now in feature freeze in M4 for 3.0 and working on bug fixing for final release
*YP 5.0.5 is under review
*We have a QA report for M3 and this is due for release this week
*YP 4.0.23 is in QA
*The known issues to be addressed before M4 rc1 is built:
*Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades pending after the recent AUH run.
**Strace kernel timeout problems
*A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
**Better solution for systemd hwdb timeout
*Yocto Project Compatible (and hence yocto-check-layer) is potentially undergoing some small tweaks which includes checking for SECURITY files in repository top levels, checking for network access outside do_fetch as part of normal builds and checking for disabled QA checks.
**Fixes for the lsb->altcfg release directory names
*A potential new “include_all” conf file directive (discussed on the openembedded-architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2055 ) has no strong objections and is proceeding to proof of concept
**Fix for hashserv bitbake-selftest server shutdown issue
*There are patches under review for the addition of configuration fragment management to bitbake. It does require the addition of support for ‘/’ characters in variable flag names (which has been requested in the past too).
**There is bitbake upgrade problem where an older OE-Core doesn’t work with a newer bitbake due to bb.build.FuncFailed being missing#
*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
*The aim is to build M4 rc1 this week if at all possible but it depends on the above issues being fixed (there are open high bugs for these)
*We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!
*A significant performance problem has been found on the autobuilder where some builds are scaling in time badly as the sstate cache grows, taking 12 hours or more in some cases. Unfortunately nobody seems motivated to help work on this kind of issue.
*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 this week.
*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://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.2_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.
