'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.33 has been released
*YP 6.1 M1 was released
*YP 5.0.16 is in TSC review
*YP 6.0.2 is in QA
*YP 6.0 M2, 5.3.2, & 4.0.34 are in QA.
*The number of open CVEs on scarthgap has been reduced with stable kernel updates merging. We have identified a few linux-yocto CVEs which need triaging due to missing version information in the CVE databases, see the email sent to the list: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto/topic/120036383
**We are aware of changes in QA timelines and are discussing how to address them.
*Systemd v260+ will require a host Linux kernel of 5.10 or later due to systemd utils run during the build process. This presents issues with RHEL 8 era distros which have older kernel versions. We have patches in progress but if you’re using these distros, assistance will be needed to keep them supported. See https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119870359
*We have issues which need further work that will block M3:  
*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 seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#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 (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic:
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
*We also have issues we need to resolve before release:
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
**groff build race issues
**Kernel rust support.
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
**Switching to pkg-config.
*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
**Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk)
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
**DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements.
**SBOM/cve-check changes.
**Reconcile poky and OE-Core defaults templates.
*OE-Core switched to enabling a hash equivalence server by default.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and the high number of intermittent build failures is still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
*The project has a booth at Embedded World next week, feel free to come and say Hi if you’re there!
