'''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 5.3.1 was released
*We have a QA report for M3 and this is due for release this week
*YP 6.0 M1 was released
*The known issues to be addressed before M4 rc1 is built:
*YP 4.0.33 is in QA
**Strace kernel timeout problems
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build next week.
**Better solution for systemd hwdb timeout
*There are currently 5 high open bugs, which will block M2. Three have line of sight to being resolved:
**Fixes for the lsb->altcfg release directory names
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 42/43 on older systems (#16087)
**Fix for hashserv bitbake-selftest server shutdown issue
**rust do_test_compile/do_install segfault (#16058)
**There is bitbake upgrade problem where an older OE-Core doesn’t work with a newer bitbake due to bb.build.FuncFailed being missing#
**Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
*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)
*Two are currently needing further work:
*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.
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
*If anyone has any status items for the project they’d like to add to the weekly reports, please email Richard+Stephen.
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (#16078)
*We are about to drop the 6.12 and 6.16 kernel recipes leaving just 6.18 for the next release
*The number of intermittent failures affecting builds, both stable and development, continues to be problematic - we continue to prioritise addressing these since any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them.
*Patch review is now using two branches:
**“master-review”  - patches which pass on the autobuilder and will be discussed on the patch review call (https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/log/?h=master-review)
**“master-backlog” - patches which have been discussed and need further investigation or more detailed feedback which we haven’t had time for yet (https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/log/?h=master-backlog)
*Patches are merging but there is a backlog and we’ve had to prioritize simpler changes. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
 


'''Planned Releases for YP 3.0 {2.8}:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*M3 Release this week.
*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=---
*M4 Cutoff 30th Sept - this will be YP 3.0.
*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/
*YP 3.0 {2.8 (M4)} Final Release 25th Oct
*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.
*For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing


'''Planned upcoming dot releases:'''<br/>

*YP 2.6.4 (Thud) is planned for after YP 2.7.2  release.
