'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.2 M3 has been through QA with one issue found
*RP is on holiday this week so should not be working
*YP 5.0.8 is in QA
*YP 5.2.3 is being reviewed for release.
*We are now at feature freeze for YP 5.2
*YP 5.0.12 is in QA
*We have a new dashboard index page linking to key tools/data pages within the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/ . Help on further improvements is welcome. We are aiming to drive the data from the autobuilder.
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build shortly (and is feature freeze)
*Welcome improvements on syncing an sstate cache with a hash equivalence server were merged allowing more efficient hash equivalence server database cleanup, thanks!
*Linux 6.16 has been integrated but is currently not the default
*Bitbake python function library files were not always being cached correctly in bitbake’s parse cache, this was fixed.
*Patches continue to merge into master for upgrades and fixes until M3 is built
*We started to merge gcc 15 fixes, particularly in native recipes as this will likely cause problems during the next release cycle with newer distro versions if we do not act.
*The main mirroring issues left are around “downloadfilename” support in urls which likely needs to be rewritten.
*There were a number of minor version upgrades for bugs and CVE related issues.
*A new version of bitbake-setup is in master-next and is making huge progress in readiness, thanks Alexander Kanavin!
*The recent annoying qemumips64 intermittent bug on the autobuilder looks to be a mips specific kernel issue which has been fixed upstream. We continue to wonder whether we should test mips/powerpc given the lack of interest in helping resolve issues.
*The Embedded Linux Conference was a success, with lots of Yocto-related talks being full to capacity. The OpenEmbedded and Yocto Project mini conferences were well attended and very interesting. Thanks to everyone who attended and made it a great event!
*There are several fetcher changes pending including the ability to specify both a tag and a source revision.

*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 will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
