'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.5 M1 is in QA
*YP 6.1 is due for release after final review
*YP 3.1.13 is due to build this week
*YP 6.0.4 is in QA.
*We have maintenance to the autobuilder planned to fit SSDs to speed up IO and update the host distros to more modern equivalents. If parts arrive as planned, this is scheduled for next week (20th-24th) and the autobuilder will be unavailable during the work. There may be bring up issues with the new distros.
*YP 5.0.21 is queued for QA next.
*There were significant improvements in patch metrics this week with large drops in both patches in the pending state and overlap number of patches. Thanks to everyone who contributed to that!
*Blacksail and master are now on separate branches and have diverged.
*As part of patch cleanup, some changes were made which could impact other layers or our spectrum of support. The libtool prefix patches were dropped as the need was largely obsolete by recipe specific sysroots, hosttools and other developments and this may mean patches in other layers can be dropped too. Some non-upstream invasive mips and sh4 patches were dropped as they were either obsolete or there were less invasive ways to handle them.  
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
*CVE metrics improved this week with drops in open CVEs for both dunfull and master.
*There are changes to the pypi class so that PYPI_PACKAGE is the normalised name
*Intermittent issues continue to rise and help is very much welcome on these issues. 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
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue - thanks for the work and fixes so far on this.
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
*Thanks to everyone who attended the Dev Day or came and saw us in Prague. This was the largest Yocto Dev Day so far!


'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*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 3.5. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.5_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.
