'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.20 is in QA
*YP 5.3.1 was released
*YP 5.1 M2 is due to be built now SPDX 3.0 has merged
*YP 6.0 M1 was released
*SPDX 3.0 has merged, thanks Joshua, Marta and everyone else who has worked on this.
*YP 4.0.33 is in QA
*We’ve chosen to make SPDX 3.0 the default since it is much more suited to what we do.
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build next week.
*A number of QA checks were moved from WARN_QA to ERROR_QA. The intention is to allow recipes to be marked up with known issues rather than have builds with warnings people tend to ignore, or ideally have the issues fixed.
*There are currently 5 high open bugs, which will block M2. Three have line of sight to being resolved:
*If layers choose to change ERROR_QA, please do it on a per layer basis with an override, not globally,
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 42/43 on older systems (#16087)
*An upcoming version of Yocto Project Compatible will require some subset of the ERROR_QA checks to be tested and passed for the layer to be compatible.
**rust do_test_compile/do_install segfault (#16058)
*Debug optimization handling was changed, the DEBUG_FLAGS variable was dropped in favor of a new DEBUG_LEVELFLAG which allows distros to more easily change recipe debug levels, in particular to control size.
**Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
*The autobuilder has been running into space issues and we analyzed space usage in a build. Patches are proposed to drop the debug symbols for on target llvm to reduce space usage (along with teaks to qemu and openssl) as the output size is effectively unusable currently. Further work on minimizing disk usage would be very welcome and there is a direct relationship with build speed too.
*Two are currently needing further work:
*Autobuilder test result/output indexing has been moved to a specific autobuilder job so the work is more visible to all users (the ‘indexing’ builder). The script has been optimized and the output html cleaned up by Sovereign Tech *Fund sponsorship through their contractors: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
*Some larger patches still need help with review these would be appreciated:
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (#16078)
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
*We are about to drop the 6.12 and 6.16 kernel recipes leaving just 6.18 for the next release
**kernel fitimage changes from Adrian
*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.
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*Patch review is now using two branches:
*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
**“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)
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately. Rust 1.77 has a much smaller list of problems at least in initial testing.
**“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 5.1. 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.

*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.
