'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M2 was released
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*We’re now in a much better position with reproducibility issues after around 20 patches merged addressing various problems. Some issues still remain but the bulk of the issues appear to be under control now.
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*Due to the number and type of fixes found, the 3.0.2 rc1 build will be abandoned and rc2 built with the reproducibility fixes (as well as additional hashserv/multiconfig fixes). This delays 3.0.2 by a week but for a reasonable set of improvements.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*YP 3.0.2 should therefore enter QA within the next day or so.
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
*Review of newly queued warrior (2.7.3) patches will happen later this week once 3.0.2 is in QA.
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
*With the new fixes and a small fix to the autobuilder code, we managed the first green “full” build in nearly three months.
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
*The incoming patch queue is roughly under control again
*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.
*We’re collecting a list of companies, products and projects which use the Yocto Project on the wiki: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Project_Users Please add any you know are missing (or email Richard/Stephen who can add).
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*One worrying metric is that the WDD is now on level with the high of 2017 so our worst defect weighting in two years. This is sadly unsurprising and directly correlated to a lack of participation in the triage process and a lack of people working on general bug fixing.
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
*The triage team is worried about attendance at triage meetings and the project is finding it hard to find people to help fix bugs. If anyone is willing to work on bugs, assistance would be greatly appreciated.
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026 (full details pending)
 
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*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!
*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
*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.
