'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M2 was released
*There is a proposal and proof of concept for changes to layer configuration and setup out for discussion/review: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2463
*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.
*The proposed layer changes will likely be more invasive than many of the recent changes but also incorporate a number of new features and improvements which will make them useful to everyone and allow various cleanups of existing code.
*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.
*There is also a discussion about recipe specific hosttools: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2467
*YP 3.0.2 should therefore enter QA within the next day or so.
*The Yocto Project wiki has undergone significant cleanup, mostly with removal of obsolete pages/information. We plan to migrate the remaining data to a different solution. If anyone is able to help with review of content, please let us know.
*Review of newly queued warrior (2.7.3) patches will happen later this week once 3.0.2 is in QA.
*The project has adopted an updated policy on AI-generated contributions: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ai-assisted-contribution-policy.html
*With the new fixes and a small fix to the autobuilder code, we managed the first green “full” build in nearly three months.
*There was a widely reported security issue with musl+openssh. The project has published details on the situation here: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-security/message/1728
*The incoming patch queue is roughly under control again
*We had some positive response to our request for help with the issues highlighted from the bug triage team last week. Further help is requested with the following devtool & recipetool issues:
*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).
**go recipes are not devtool upgradeable (#14944)
*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.
**recipetool create should add tag= for git SRC_URI (#15816)
*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.
*We have moved a couple of planned releases forward by a week to avoid needing to make a release during the end of the year holidays.

'''Proposed YP 3.1 Milestone Dates'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M3 build date 2/24/2020
*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=---
*YP 3.1 M3 release date 3/6/2020
*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 3.1 M4 build date  3/30/2020
*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.
*YP 3.1 M4 release date  4/24/2020
