'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.3.4 is due to be released.
*YP 5.3.1 was released
*YP 5.0 rc1 is now due to build when ready.
*YP 6.0 M1 was released
*All dunfell patches should have been sent now in preparation for an April 15 build. This will be the last release of dunfell.
*YP 4.0.33 is in QA
*For 5.0, we are still hoping to switch the hash equivalence server before running the release build but that is the only remaining pending change. We do also still need documentation work for the release
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build next week.
*A new yocto-status mailing list has been created where we plan to send just the project weekly status reports and any other suitable updates on the project. This should help those who found the traffic of the other mailing lists too much.
*There are currently 5 high open bugs, which will block M2. Three have line of sight to being resolved:
*A yocto-patches mailing list has been setup and patches that used to go to the yocto@ list will be migrating over to this new list, making yocto@ a bit more friendly for questions and discussions. Information in layers is being updated to reflect this.
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 42/43 on older systems (#16087)
*We received some disappointing feedback from a key organization in the RISC-V ecosystem that the Yocto Project was not important and not worth funding. We will take this feedback into account.
**rust do_test_compile/do_install segfault (#16058)
*The “Binary Distro” work is now well underway and there are PR Server passthrough patches under review. The wiki page has had a number of policy/process proposals documented, at least as a first pass. Help is welcome to help improve these, or highlight where further documentation is needed.
**Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
*We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the recent update didn’t clarify much. Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a clear path forward as yet but using data directly from MITRE may help give partial information. These issues are making it hard to know what to include in the 5.0 release as it isn’t clear which changes are security related.
*Two are currently needing further work:
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (#16078)
*We are about to drop the 6.12 and 6.16 kernel recipes leaving just 6.18 for the next release
*The number of intermittent failures affecting builds, both stable and development, continues to be problematic - we continue to prioritise addressing these since any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them.
*Patch review is now using two branches:
**“master-review”  - patches which pass on the autobuilder and will be discussed on the patch review call (https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/log/?h=master-review)
**“master-backlog” - patches which have been discussed and need further investigation or more detailed feedback which we haven’t had time for yet (https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/log/?h=master-backlog)
*Patches are merging but there is a backlog and we’ve had to prioritize simpler changes. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.

*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!
*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 5.0. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.0_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*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.
