'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*M3 has now closed and we’re at feature freeze for 3.2.
*YP 6.0 was released, thanks everyone who contributed!
*We continue to be in holding pattern for M3 whilst we sort out the sphinx documentation migration. We’re at a point where we just need to press on and complete it.
*YP 5.0.18 is in QA.
*There are three significant autobuilder issues being faced currently:
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
**qemumips fails with systemd with 256MB memory, it needs 512MB. If we enable 512MB, we see random hangs. Unless someone can debug and sort the qemu memory issues, we may end up disabling core-image-sato-sdk and core-image-full-cmdline for qemumips+systemd
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic:
**networking with qemu images appears to glitch at times (particularly slower targets such as ltp and qemumips), the session stalls with “no route to host”. We need better serial interrogation to determine the state of qemu when this happens, its unclear if qemu/kernel hangs, networking fails or what is breaking.
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**The timeouts in bitbake have been narrowed down to the “SyncThread” which writes out the cache data to disk stalling for around 90s. We don’t have a plan to address this right now but its at least process in identifying the cause
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*The bitbake parsing hangs should hopefully all be resolved now, thanks to Joshua for help there.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
*A preview of the sphinx built documentation is available at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/, work is ongoing to complete the migration work and blocking M3.
**groff build race issues
*We continue to struggle with a number of autobuilder intermittent bugs. 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 with any of these would be much appreciated, unfortunately it is proving hard to find anyone interested in helping figure these out and they significantly hamper our testing.
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
*One way to help the project is to help us with bugs that are currently unassigned but ideally needed during YP 3.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*Master (blacksail) is open for new development
*We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. We have a roadmap document in Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12xgAzSjDj5zVlo4eQIbiv1s3QMjtBTCvBFY3_T7OPto
*We are updating the project’s security team and welcome nominations and/or feedback: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119388716
*Monday 25th May is a public holiday in the UK and USA so there will be no patch review call.


'''YP 3.2 Milestone Dates:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.2 M3 build date 2020/8/31
*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 3.2 M3 Release date 2020/9/11
*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 3.2 M4 build date 2020/10/5
*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 3.2 M4 Release date 2020/10/30
