'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.25 is out of QA pending review
*YP 5.0.15 is in QA
*YP 5.1.3 is in QA
*YP 6.0 M1 will build when the 5 open high bugs are resolved.
*We are now 1 week from feature freeze for 5.2
*We have a number of issues with build performance tests, test results and hanging glibc NFS tests on the autobuilder which need to be resolved before we can build a new release.
*Patch review remains a challenge due to the limited number of people involved and the volume and breadth of changes. That work distracts from work on areas like clang or other improvements.
*Due to the number of problems currently present, patch merging will have to slow to avoid adding any further issues.
*We are struggling to get stable releases to build cleanly due to intermittent failures, which places strain on everyone. Sadly, traction on help for the intermittent issues remains problematic.
*Yoann Congal is starting to ramp up as the new LTS maintainer to take over from Steve Sakoman
*There are multiple occasional but annoying autobuilder failures we could do with help debugging/fixing, summarized by https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/
*The linux kernel is now defaulting to 6.18 and the other versions will soon be removed.
*Bitbake-setup patches have been submitted but merging remains unlikely simply due to lack of participation in the review/testing process.
*We have isolated the Fedora43 workers until we can root cause the binary problems it was causing when the sstate was shared to older systems
*The gomod mirror issue in meta-openembedded continues to give failed builds on the autobuilder. There would be ways to add short term fixes. The better fixes likely involve rewriting mirror url handling, which can’t be rushed into and discussions on that are stalling anyway.
*The project is exploring the idea of applying for funding for security related work. If anyone (individual or consultancies) has ideas, please talk to Paul/Richard/TSC. This is an opportunity to work on those issues you never have time/funding for!
*The newcomer bug list has been triaged and has a number of new issues added.
*We will be entirely disabling the npm fetcher in bitbake due to the security issues until those are resolved (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16105)..

*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!

*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’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.
