'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.3.1 was released
*YP 6.0 M2 has been released.
*YP 6.0 M1 was released
*YP 4.0.34 is due to be released.
*YP 4.0.33 is in QA
*YP 5.3.3 is in review after QA.
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build next week.
*YP 6.0 M3 is the feature freeze for 6.0 which is our next LTS.
*There are currently 5 high open bugs, which will block M2. Three have line of sight to being resolved:
*YP 6.0 M3 is now due to build however there are many key changes needed still missing.  
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 42/43 on older systems (#16087)
**Issues still pending:
**rust do_test_compile/do_install segfault (#16058)
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
**Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
**Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk)
*Two are currently needing further work:
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
**DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements.
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (#16078)
**SBOM/cve-check changes.
*We are about to drop the 6.12 and 6.16 kernel recipes leaving just 6.18 for the next release
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
*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.
*Issues that are mostly known quantities still needing work:
*Patch review is now using two branches:
**x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**“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)
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds
**“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)
**Reconcile poky and OE-Core defaults templates.
*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.
**Resolve Fedora 43 selftest failures
 
**Fixing yocto-check-layer to work with –machines
*Issues that were resolved this week:
**Switching to pkg-config.
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup (further tweaks still being discussed)
*We are seeing issues with older versions of tar on RHEL 9 derived distros (selinux triggers due to xattrs)
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
