'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.1.1 has passed QA and is likely to be released imminently.
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*We’d like to remind people of the importance of developing features on master. Once ready, these can then become available in the next LTS. We do not develop features against current LTS releases, that defeats their purpose.
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*A key bug in sstate reuse with hash equivalence where “hard” dependencies like pseudo-native and shadow-native rehash was found and is fixed in bitbake master.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*We are thinking about more significant bitbake changes at the moment. Some ideas under consideration are:
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
**Adding extra information about hashes to the bitbake cache (and the expense of slower loading cache files and slightly slower initial parsing). This would allow easier debugging of hash mismatch issues (e.g. basehash parsing mismatches or esdk hash issues).
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
**Thinking about the idea of variable “filter” functions to help implementation of recipe class extensions (like native and nativesdk).
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
**Extending bitbake’s recipe syntax to support structured data.
*This change will mean “poky” as a combo-layer repository will no longer be needed or updated. This means autobuilder changes before we build 5.3 M3.
*We’d welcome a proposal/series on how to move forward with the Y2038 work for 32 bit platforms.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026 (full details pending)

*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 4.2 See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarball and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting some kind of upstream feature merged to make this easier: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.3_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*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.
