*There were some great patch status cleanups, thanks Alexander (will show in next week’s metrics)
*There are some CVE related announcements which are helpful to us:
*There is a patch to improve the way the *FLAGS variables operate. It is possible this may change behavior in some corner cases but the usability improvements mean we’re likely to merge the patch and address any issues that arise.
**There was a CVE 5.1 Record format announcement with changes that encourage more useful data from our perspective
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
**CISA announced on linkedin the creation of https://github.com/cisagov/vulnrichment
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990  
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first contribution if anyone is interested.

*The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc.
*The WORKDIR to UNPACKDIR transition and redefinition of UNPACKDIR now has patches under testing in master-next, including updates to recipetool and devtool which pass our automated tests.
*gcc 14 has patches pending thanks for Khem and Martin in particular. Merging the new gcc version is needed to generate new uninative tarballs to support Fedora 40 builds or any other distro using the new gcc version.
*The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
*Mailing list changes now mean any google hosted email accounts have the mailing list From: address rewritten. This had impacted our ability to handle patches but key maintainers now have workarounds for this.
*Our automated tests have been seeing a number of intermittent issues. An email was sent detailing a few of these and the response with several patches or patches in progress has been extremely helpful and they’re very gratefully received.
