'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.3 has been released. Thanks go to everyone who contributed to it!
*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
*YP 3.1.7 has come cleanly through QA and is pending TSC approval for release.
*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.
*The YP TSC has now served for two years, thanks go to the outgoing TSC (Armin, Denys, Khem, Richard, Ross) who have been instrumental in a number of significant project developments over that time such as the LTS, definition of processes and resourcing the project. Some of the work isn’t immediately obvious but has shaped the project and should ensure a stable and positive future direction.
*There is also a discussion about recipe specific hosttools: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2467
*New TSC members are now being chosen for the next two years. Three of the TSC seats have now been (re-)elected by the YP members and those seats are being filled by Richard (chair), Khem and Ross. Two are elected by the OE community and there will be a call for candidates coming soon from the OE board to the OE membership.
*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.
*The master branch has opened for 3.4 development and a number of patches queued during release of 3.3 have now merged.
*The project has adopted an updated policy on AI-generated contributions: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ai-assisted-contribution-policy.html
*There may be interest in a new command, “bitbake-getvar” being proposed on the bitbake mailing list and in master-next. This makes it easier to see the history of a single variable and also makes a neat example of using the tinfoil API. We are also considering other similar helper commands (maybe along the lines of the ‘bb’ tool) with a view to making things easier for new users.
*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
*Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur and are now at a record high level. 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 We are working to identify the load pattern on the infrastructure that seems to trigger these.
*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

*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 3.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.3_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.
