*YP 6.0.1 is due for release
*There is a proposal and proof of concept for changes to layer configuration and setup out for discussion/review: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2463
*YP 6.1 M1 is in QA
*The proposed layer changes will likely be more invasive than many of the recent changes but also incorporate a number of new features and improvements which will make them useful to everyone and allow various cleanups of existing code.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*There is also a discussion about recipe specific hosttools: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2467
*An initial round of patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage in OE-Core have now merged
*The Yocto Project wiki has undergone significant cleanup, mostly with removal of obsolete pages/information. We plan to migrate the remaining data to a different solution. If anyone is able to help with review of content, please let us know.
*AUH is now running daily in incremental mode so we can avoid large batches of upgrade patches and spread them out as well as reacting more quickly to new upstream releases. We’re still tweaking some of the behaviours and reporting but if anyone has feedback/concerns, let us know.
*The project has adopted an updated policy on AI-generated contributions: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ai-assisted-contribution-policy.html
*We’ve deliberately aimed to get up to date with the AUH success patches to better evaluate the ongoing upgrades.
*There was a widely reported security issue with musl+openssh. The project has published details on the situation here: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto-security/message/1728
*We have merged support for `devtool upgrade --stable` and the upstream-stable-release-point bbclass. We hope to use this to track upstream projects with known good stable release series, but we need input and discussion on what the criteria should be. Please participate in the discussion on the OE-Architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119437109
*We had some positive response to our request for help with the issues highlighted from the bug triage team last week. Further help is requested with the following devtool & recipetool issues:
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
**go recipes are not devtool upgradeable (#14944)
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues - the qemu upgrade merged, at least some issues still occur
**recipetool create should add tag= for git SRC_URI (#15816)
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*We have moved a couple of planned releases forward by a week to avoid needing to make a release during the end of the year holidays.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**6.1.1:   2026-11-23
**groff build race issues
**6.0.5:   2026-11-30
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes (python3-click was tweaked)
**5.0.22:  2026-12-07
*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
**6.2 M1:  2026-12-14
