'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1.3 has been released.
*YP 5.3.4 is due to release (has been approved)
*We are now (over)due to build M4 rc1. There are currently three high bugs blocking the final M4 build, a buildtools issue where buildtools needs updating in the install script, a toaster issue with recent bitbake cooker process changes and a missing kea init script..
*YP 6.0 is due to release (has been approved)
*Major pseudo changes have been merged and are now testing cleanly on the testing infrastructure. The known community reported issues have also been resolved and a couple of underlying pseudo bugs discovered and fixed too. Interestingly there was around a 2GB reduction in the size of the pseudo databases for core-image-sato after the path filtering was added.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge
*Victor did some great work in understanding why qemumips was so much slower than qemumips64 and by changing the number of TLBs (easy in software!). we were able to see a 40% speedup in 32 mips qemu test execution times. A further piece of good news is upstream look willing to add functionality which lets us configure the number of TLBs so we shouldn’t have to maintain anything out of tree, thanks Victor!
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic
*Unfortunately, intermittent autobuilder issues are still occurring, whilst reducing in frequency and number, possibly due to less frequency full rebuilds. 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.
*We have pruned the release artefacts, please let us know if any you would like to use are missing. We’re also interested to know which ones people actually use outside of uninative/buildtools and the BSP test images.
*Master is open for new development
*We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. Please send proposals to the mailing list or raise them during the weekly status call, Paul will be collecting these into a project roadmap.

*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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 bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 3.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*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/
*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.
*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.
