'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 6.0.2 has been released
*YP 6.1 M3 was released
*YP 5.0.19 is due to release
*YP 6.1 is due for build imminently
*YP 6.1 M2 will build this week after pseudo, systemd and resulttool changes merge
*Blacksail and master are now on separate branches and have diverged.
*Some invasive LICENSE changes have merged into master:
*We are not aware of anyone focusing on specific 6.1 stabilization work so we will likely build 6.1 very soon.
**We now require the LICENSE field to match SPDX identifiers.
*We’ve continued progress on the build architecture reproducibility issues, thanks all!
**The build will issue warnings when this isn’t the case.
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**Non SPDX licenses will need to be of the form LicenseRef-XXX
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**CLOSED is no longer a valid value.  
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue - thanks for the work and fixes so far on this.
**‘WITH’ license exceptions are now supported
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
Big thanks for Joshua for getting us to the point where we can finally clean this up!
*Bitbake’s network disabling has recently been enhanced to include landlock support. This means the network isolation for tasks can be more effective on certain kernel/distro combinations using newer technology.
*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
*Next week is Open Source Summit EU and Yocto Project Developer Day in Prague! Contact Paul or Megan if you are attending and want to meet up with other Yocto Project folks, especially if you’re new t o our community.
*Patches generated by the automatic upgrade helper (AUH) now include changelogs where these can be extracted from upstream.
**Regular meetings on Tuesday and Thursday next week will be canceled, including the Tech call (Tue 6th), Patch review call (Thu 8th) and Bug triage call (Thu 8th). The Monday patch review call will be going ahead.
*A couple of further pseudo related issues were identified, one with linkat flags and one with openat2 (tar related/triggered). We hope to have patches merged soon.
*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’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge. The review calls are running out of time each meeting which limits progress.
**We’re making little progress on intermittent build failures despite the problems continuing to impact test builds:
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
**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
*For the qemuarmv5 amba crash (#16217), we did confirm it doesn’t seem to be load or memory usage related and does seem to happen on the autobuilder but not on other systems, for reasons still currently unknown.
