'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We are now at feature freeze for 4.3.
*YP 5.0.5 is under review
*YP 4.0.12 was released
*YP 4.0.23 is in QA
*YP 4.2.3 is due to be released
*Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades pending after the recent AUH run.
*The qemuppc ssh command hangs continues to be a mystery. It seems to be something in recent master that regressed it but it isn’t the kernel, the binutils upgrade, systemd or glibc or qemu. We’ve not seen any other hangs so the x86 issues may have been something else.
*A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
*The acl/xattr changes are blocked on a hard requirement on tar 1.35, it is unclear how we’d achieve that in all cases.
*Yocto Project Compatible (and hence yocto-check-layer) is potentially undergoing some small tweaks which includes checking for SECURITY files in repository top levels, checking for network access outside do_fetch as part of normal builds and checking for disabled QA checks.  
*Patches have been resubmitted to radically alter the do_unpack process for license compliance reasons. The code is complex and hard to understand and will have a performance impact on builds as well as making things hard to debug. The risk of not taking the changes is that for some legal departments, the SPDX data isn’t detailed enough. The compromise between performance and ease of use vs. legal requirements is a tough one. We don’t really want to have two codepaths either. Feedback/review on the series welcome.
*A potential new “include_all” conf file directive (discussed on the openembedded-architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2055 ) has no strong objections and is proceeding to proof of concept
*We continue to see intermittent ptest failures for glib-networking and openssh, help would be much appreciated.
*There are patches under review for the addition of configuration fragment management to bitbake. It does require the addition of support for ‘/’ characters in variable flag names (which has been requested in the past too).
*The M3 build will depend upon reaching conclusions in several of these areas
*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
*We’re happy to be able to announce that some of the work in the RFQ will now be progressing, specifically that:
*We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!
**Marta Rybczynska will be working on the security topic
**Alexander Kanvin will be working on the core workflow topic
**Savoir-faire Linux will be working on the toaster and VSCode topics
**BayLibre will be working on the patchtest and project tooling topics
The other remaining topic areas should be announced soon.
We’d also note that Tim Orling (Konsulko) will be working on the layer index.

*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: patchtest, layerindex, 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 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
