'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1.19 was released
*YP 6.1 is due for release after final review
*We are now at feature freeze for 4.1 but M3 has not been built yet.
*YP 6.0.4 is in QA.
*We are trying to prepare for the M3 build but the status of too many issues remains uncertain. In particular:
*YP 5.0.21 is queued for QA next.
**llvm buildpaths patch was requested to be rewritten and the rewrite doesn’t work
*Blacksail and master are now on separate branches and have diverged.
**rust ppc patch was deemed incorrect
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
**layer setup changes didn’t test successfully
*There are changes to the pypi class so that PYPI_PACKAGE is the normalised name
**rust SDK relocation patch is still in progress
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**concerns were raised over the rust crossbeam-utils atomics workaround
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
*In addition, several other high priority (release blocking) bugs were identified in bug triage, particularly issues which are occurring intermittently but regularly and hence causing failed builds. Richard and Ross own the majority but can’t handle all these at once and rather depressingly, there was nobody to take ownership of some of them. The current list of open high bugs:
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue - thanks for the work and fixes so far on this.
**perl builds hanging indefinitely: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14902
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
**cve checking crashing intermittently with database issues: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14899
*Thanks to everyone who attended the Dev Day or came and saw us in Prague. This was the largest Yocto Dev Day so far!
**ptest in gcrypt intermittently but regularly failing on arm: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14800
**build path corruption when llvm is used to build mesa: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14897
**ptest infrastructure issue which stops us debugging an intermittent failure in lttng: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14901
**intermittent rust SDK host library corruption: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14892
**no automated mechanism to compare releases for ptest regressions: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14897
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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


'''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 4.1 See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.1_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.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRgNISmH0Ditf0bRtSezeR2XsgKIiSFJKF6KJUHpnzocNGzvKZbuSDKfmV3n64BFXDRqElBSJnhHtG4/pubchart?oid=1993375488&format=interactive
