*YP 3.3.5 has been released.
*YP 3.5 M3 has been released.
*YP 3.5 M3 is now in QA
*YP 3.1.15 is now in QA
*All of the known disruptive changes for 3.5 should now be merged and we’re looking at stabilizing up to release in around 4 weeks.
*There are patches proposed to move python3-cryptography to OE-Core from meta-oe/meta-python. It is late in the cycle but the current location is causing issues for several layers and it appears to be the right thing to do before kirkstone is released.
*We do plan to experiment a little with M4 in this cycle by taking low risk upgrades before release as this does tend to help improve the baseline versions in the final release and help reduce our security exposure. Experience shows issues tend to be introduced by feature changes and potentially other code improvements rather than recipe upgrades and that the autobuilder testing generally does a good job of evaluating upgrades.
*There is a proposal to switch from pip to installer to handle installation of python modules. With some development, the path becomes clear in hindsight and this is another change where it seems to make sense to do it now.
*Other than the above, we should be seeing the recent python changes settling down.
*There were some tweaks to the tasks display in knotty merged.
*We took an upgrade to mesa 22 which drops dri1 support on the basis it stands the release in a better long term position.
*We have continued to take other minimal impact upgrades and this is having a positive impact on CVE numbers.
*Toaster has seen a number of fixes recently and should be in a stronger position for release with a move to an LTS django version, thanks Tim and David.
*Help in completing the migration documentation would be much appreciated.
