'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We are now at feature freeze for 5.0, preparing to build M3
*YP 5.0.5 is under review
*YP 4.3.3 passed QA and is in review pending release
*YP 4.0.23 is in QA
*The changes which we’d still like to see in 5.0 that have not merged yet are:
*Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades pending after the recent AUH run.
**genericarm64 machine (there is a draft and it is close)
*A patch is pending to remove support for BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY
**QA screenshot comparison
*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.  
**sstate permissions issue testcase
*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
*Several changes have merged for M3:
*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).
**ncurses based task dependency explorer (thanks David!)
*The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing
**change to rust test suite logging
*We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so far!
**useradd fix
**dbus configuration security fix
**bitbake hashserve improvements to better position future server capability/functionality
**tweaks to support recipe locale support
**support for BB_LOADFACTOR_MAX load regulation in bitbake when psi is unavailable.
**further IDE integration tweaks and improvements
*There are also several concerning issues without any clear resolution path at present:
**rust upgrade blocked by reproducibility issues
**musl upgrade blocked by large number of unsubmitted pending patches
**nativesdk-systemd usage broken by usrmerge requirement (we can’t changing the SDK layout now)
**go isn't upgraded (although there now are partial patches)
*There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. We will trial qemuriscv64 support in M3 but remove it before the final LTS release as there is no sponsor for that support.

*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

We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
