'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2.4  has passed QA and under discussion pending release
*YP 6.1 is due for release after final review
*YP 4.3.1 is in QA
*YP 6.0.4 is in QA.
*The BB_DEFAULT_EVENTLOG setting has exposed a bug where the bitbake server could hang due to thread deadlocking. A fix has been merged for it yesterday.
*YP 5.0.21 is queued for QA next.
*The length of builds (world and oe-selftest) continues to be a concern.
*Blacksail and master are now on separate branches and have diverged.
*The intermittent issues on the autobuilder are causing problems for master branch development and stable releases and this is slowing down patch testing and merging. We simply don't have enough people to fix the issues quickly enough and the people we do have are struggling.
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
*There are some worrying issues around trying to fix the useradd bugs, particularly around inter-sstate task dependencies. There is a discussion about this on the openembedded-architecture list for those interested.
*There are changes to the pypi class so that PYPI_PACKAGE is the normalised name
*The Yocto Project Summit is this week so the regular meetings are canceled so people can attend the summit: https://summit.yoctoproject.org/yocto-project-summit-2023-11/ .
*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.
<br/>
**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/>
*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!
*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 identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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/
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 4.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.3_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*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.
*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.
*For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing
*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.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
