'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.3.1 was released
*YP 6.1 M1 was released
*YP 6.0 M1 was released
*YP 6.0.2 is in review
*YP 4.0.33 is in QA
*YP 5.0.19 is in QA
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build next week.
*We are now two weeks away from M2!
*There are currently 5 high open bugs, which will block M2. Three have line of sight to being resolved:
*We have identified a few linux-yocto CVEs which need triaging due to missing version information in the CVE databases (affecting master, wrynose and scarthgap), see the email sent to the list: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto/topic/120036383
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 42/43 on older systems (#16087)
*We are having some challenges with the autobuilder, both with an NFS server open file/lock build up of some kind causing slowdown and eventual halting of write operations and also a mkdir cache race issue. We are working to debug both issues but it is distracting from other work like patch review and new development (e.g. layer.conf format changes).
**rust do_test_compile/do_install segfault (#16058)
*Systemd issues with older host kernels (e.g. RHEL 8) is still being worked on https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119870359
**Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
*We have become aware we should ideally replace eudev with a minimal udev build from systemd instead similar to what some other distros are doing.
*Two are currently needing further work:  
*We continue to see high load on our infrastructure due to bots and AI scraping. This has primarily caused timeouts and errors accessing git.openembedded.org & git.yoctoproject.org. We have mitigations in place for now. Traditional git:// protocol continues to be disabled.
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (#16078)
*A key pseudo memory corruption issue when interacting with bash was identified and patches are being worked on for a new pseudo release to address this.
*We are about to drop the 6.12 and 6.16 kernel recipes leaving just 6.18 for the next release
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic:
*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.
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
*Patch review is now using two branches:
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**“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)
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**“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)
**groff build race issues
*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.
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
 
*We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. We have a roadmap document in Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12xgAzSjDj5zVlo4eQIbiv1s3QMjtBTCvBFY3_T7OPto
