'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*3.1 rc2 has been through QA and is now being reviewed for release
*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
*3.1 rc1 was abandoned prior to QA due to concerns about some recent changes
*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.
*YP 3.1 has been announced as an LTS release: https://www.yoctoproject.org/yocto-project-long-term-support-announced/
*There is also a discussion about recipe specific hosttools: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2467
*We’re continue to work on bug fixing since if we do need to rebuild, those fixes can be potentially included
*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.
*We are now considering planning for 3.2, there is a planning document at https://docs.google.com/document/d/100bTV-etO0joh6rAkcr7smlZ9iuENG_8BtaXs_vb54c/edit?usp=sharing
*The project has adopted an updated policy on AI-generated contributions: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ai-assisted-contribution-policy.html
*The planning process for 3.2 is likely to be more lightweight than in the past as the project simply doesn’t have the engineering resources that used to be available for new feature work at this time. We will continue to work on the items left over from previous releases in priority order, as well as trying to reduce the number of open bugs.
*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
*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:
**go recipes are not devtool upgradeable (#14944)
**recipetool create should add tag= for git SRC_URI (#15816)
*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.
**6.1.1:    2026-11-23
**6.0.5:    2026-11-30
**5.0.22:  2026-12-07
**6.2 M1:  2026-12-14
 
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*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=---
*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/
*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.
