*YP 3.2.2 is currently building.
*YP 3.2.2 has passed QA cleanly and awaiting final release approval.
*We’ve been upgrading uninative and buildtools-extended-tarball however glibc 2.33 has caused issues with build in containers and with pseudo. Hopefully these issues are now resolved or worked around with the latest patches.
*YP 3.1.6 has been built and is in QA.
*There is apparently a reputation that Yocto Project is not reproducible. It’s builds are! We now have an live status report on our website for this: https://www.yoctoproject.org/reproducible-build-results/ showing the status live from the autobuilder (thanks Joshua and Michael)
*We have one week left before M3 is due to be built. This marks our feature freeze point for YP 3.3.
*Given the above, we’ve managed to improve the reproducible selftest by separating to its own autobuilder target and showing which exclusions are no longer needed.
*We are trying to add rpm to reproducibility testing however there are several issues we need to resolve before that can merge.
*We have also fixed reproducibility issues in a number of recipes. There are still some low hanging issues in the current exclusion list.
*Looking through some of the patches in the “Pending” state, we have some really old stale ones which really need decisions to be made about their future. It would help a lot if recipe maintainers could recipe recipe patchsets and upstream them or remove them if they are no longer relevant.  
*The AUH (Automatic Upgrade Helper) has run and was relatively successful, please help us get the version upgrades in before M3 builds on the 1st.
*The glibc 2.33 issues encountered should now hopefully be resolved with the latest pseudo changes.
*We’ve changed the default umask applying to tasks in builds to make it easier to avoid reproducibility issues (bitbake now has a BB_DEFAULT_UMASK variable).
*Most of the successful AUH (Automatic Upgrade Helper) patches are now merged or queued however many of the failed upgrades have yet to be handled
*Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT
*Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur and are now at a record high level. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT
