'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.2 M3 is due to be released
*RP is on holiday this week so should not be working
*YP 5.0.8 is due to be released
*YP 5.2.3 is being reviewed for release.
*YP 5.1.4 is in QA
*YP 5.0.12 is in QA
*We are at feature freeze for YP 5.2 with our first rc build next week
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build shortly (and is feature freeze)
*We have continued to merge gcc 15 fixes in anticipation of being prepared for host distro changes in the next six months.
*Linux 6.16 has been integrated but is currently not the default
*The minimum python version was increased to 3.9 with support for Ubuntu 20.04 now requiring buildtools due to changing g++ requirements.
*Patches continue to merge into master for upgrades and fixes until M3 is built
*SRC_URI entries for git now support tag verification against a specified source revision
*The main mirroring issues left are around “downloadfilename” support in urls which likely needs to be rewritten.
*Bitbake fetcher support for multiple revisions in a single git SRC_URI entry was removed for code simplification.
*A new version of bitbake-setup is in master-next and is making huge progress in readiness, thanks Alexander Kanavin!
*Kernel stable updates merged including a key qemumips fix and various CVE fixes.
*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!
*A pseudo bug was identified and there is a reproduction patch posted however we’re struggling to work out how to fix it. We do have a workaround for the underlying pciutils trigger.
*We are aware of 500/502 errors from the project git servers. These are caused by load from the significant number of AI crawlers the infrastructure is being overloaded with which is hard to mitigate against.

*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.
