*Major changes to the rust toolchain build process were merged and this enables target rust, cross SDK and automated SDK testing. Sadly some issues remain and are stopping enabling the tests by default.
*Some rust toolchain improvements did merge, including an automated rust toolchain test. The bulk of the rework is stalled on a handful of remaining issues, particularly a couple of reproducibility problems but also a mips n32 toolchain issue.  
*We have finally tracked down and worked out a fix for the kernel reproducibility issue which appeared in recent 5.15 stable updates. It was a config option which changed depending on whether /bin/sh was dash or bash.
*We have one open CVE on master against qemu, help to backport that fix would be very welcome to keep the numbers down. CVEs in kirkstone (LTS) significantly reduced.
*The 5.19 kernel uprev is nearly ready to merge as the final build issues look to have been addressed.
*Some development workflow changes around the eSDK workflow merged. There are also some layer workflow patches still pending review.
*The base glibc 2.36 patches have merged but not the actual upgrade yet.
*We had some infrastructure issues over the weekend which impacted the autobuilder. Combined with a number of complex patch submissions, this has meant there are patches backlogged.
*A number of new CVEs appeared in master this week so help would be much appreciated in addressing those.
*The debug file mapping issues are stalled due to developer bandwidth limitations.
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. 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
