'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0.16 has been released
*YP 6.1 is due for release
*YP 5.3.2 is due to be released
*YP 6.0.4 is due for release
*YP 6.0 M2 is in QA
*YP 5.0.21 is under review
*YP 4.0.34 is in QA.
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
*YP 6.0 M3 is the feature freeze for 6.0 which is our next LTS.
*Reproducibility issues between different build archs is looking much better, we have remaining issues in systemtap, rust, rpm-sequoia, mesa and rpm.
*YP 6.0 M3 is due to build in 2 weeks however there are many key changes needed still missing.  
*There are issues where we could accept help:
*We have issues which need further work that will block M3:  
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
*We will update rsync to v3.5.1 on scarthgap & wrynose. This is an exception to the usual process as the backported CVE patches were not reviewable or maintainable.
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds
*Big thanks to Tim Orling for key fixes for layerindex and error reporting
*We also have issues we need to resolve before M3:
*Builds are now working on Fedora 45 thanks to a pseudo fix and fetcher tweaks for wget v2
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup.
*UK and European daylight savings time finishes this Sunday, some meeting times track US Pacific timezone so double check your calendars next week.
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
*The CFP is now open for the OpenEmbedded Workshop to be held in Brussels on Feb 1st 2027.
**Kernel rust support.
*Thanks to everyone who attended the Dev Day or came and saw us in Prague. This was the largest Yocto Dev Day so far!
**Switching to pkg-config.
**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.
**Switch to internal VNC server in QEMU
**update to glibc 2.43 so we can release a new uninative
*We identified a number of timeout/buffer related issues in and around ptest-runner and whilst we’re still in early stages of testing, these look to significantly improve autobuilder intermittent ptest failures, particularly on qemuriscv64.
*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.
*On scarthgap, we have updated to openssl 3.5 since that is still maintained
*The project has a booth at Embedded World this week, feel free to come and say Hi if you’re there!
