'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.19  and YP 5.1 M1 were released
*YP 6.1 is in QA
*YP 5.0.2 was built and is entering QA.
*YP 6.0.4 is pending with QA.
*There were some great patch status cleanups, thanks Alexander (will show in next week’s metrics)
*Blacksail and master are now on separate branches and have diverged.
*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.
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
*There are changes to the pypi class so that PYPI_PACKAGE is the normalised name
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
*python3-pytz moved from core to meta-oe, if you notice anything using it, it is a sign the dependencies may be obsolete
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
*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.
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue - thanks for the work and fixes so far on this.
*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
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
**Please consider signing this to show support for those changes.
*Bitbake’s network disabling has recently been enhanced to include landlock support.
**Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
*This week is Open Source Summit EU and Yocto Project Developer Day in Prague! Contact Paul or Megan if you are attending and want to meet up with other Yocto Project folks, especially if you’re new to our community.
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc.
**Regular meetings on Tuesday and Thursday will be canceled, including the Tech call (Tue 6th), Patch review call (Thu 8th) and Bug triage call (Thu 8th).


'''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: 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 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_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.
