'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0.19 has been released
*YP 6.1 M3 was released
*YP 6.1 M2 is out of QA and under review
*YP 6.1 is due for build imminently
*Progress has been made with some of the AB-INT issues:
*Blacksail and master are now on separate branches and have diverged.
**We identified a kernel issue likely causing the arm psplash boot hangs
*We are not aware of anyone focusing on specific 6.1 stabilization work so we will likely build 6.1 very soon.
**The groff race issues were reported upstream and we have that section of the build disabled for groff-native now to avoid them
*We’ve continued progress on the build architecture reproducibility issues, thanks all!
**Several pseudo issues were patched in a recent update
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**One infrastructure issue on a worker was corrected
*There are two AB-INT issues which are in a position where others could now help, as detailed in https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/message/242105:
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue - thanks for the work and fixes so far on this.
    We get a lot of comments about these being hard to reproduce or work on, in both cases, these have specific well defined things which need to be done and a basic understanding of what the issue relates to, if not the actual fix.
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
*Some invasive LICENSE changes have merged into master:
*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 now require the LICENSE field to match SPDX identifiers.  
*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.
**The build will issue warnings when this isn’t the case.
**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.
**Non SPDX licenses will need to be of the form LicenseRef-XXX
**CLOSED is no longer a valid value.
**‘WITH’ license exceptions are now supported
Big thanks to Joshua for getting us to the point where we can finally clean this up!
*Patches generated by the automatic upgrade helper (AUH) now include changelogs where these can be extracted from upstream. Initial results are good, some manual tweaking of commit messages may be needed, feedback is welcome to improve the automation.
*We continue to work on the backlog of patches which has slightly reduced.
*Fixes merged to handle ptest reports for both glibc and musl in resulttool and whilst this improves the main reports, it does cause noise in the regression reports due to poor comparison baselines.
*Remaining intermittent build failures  of concern:
**other qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
