*We have pruned the release artefacts, please let us know if any you would like to use are missing. We’re also interested to know which ones people actually use outside of uninative/buildtools and the BSP test images.
*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
*Master is open for new development
*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).
*We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. Please send proposals to the mailing list or raise them during the weekly status call, Paul will be collecting these into a project roadmap.
*Systemd issues with older host kernels (e.g. RHEL 8) is still being worked on https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119870359
*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.
*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.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*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.

**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**groff build race issues
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
