*YP 3.4 M3 has been released
*YP 3.3.3 was released
*YP 3.3.3 rc2 is in QA.
*YP 3.1.11 is in QA.
*YP 3.1.11 is due to build this week.
*The public hash equivalence and sstate share highlighted some issues where builds from sstate were not as optimal as they could be. There are a number of related patches on the mailing list, some are more invasive than others and are marked as RFC. They do fix and improve valid issues but some may be too invasive at this point of the release.
*We now have a public hash equivalence service from the autobuilder available and instructions on testing with this are on the mailing list. With a couple of recent fixes, build from the autobuilder sstate are now possible and quite effective.
*The output hash timestamp issues were resolved and this has improved state reuse.
*Issues have been found in the output task hashes related to timestamps and improvements for this are pending in master-next.
*Fixes for a number of open bugs in bugzilla have been posted but some have implications for other layers (e.g. accounting site info in task hashes).
*We have noticed bitbake was hiding deprecation warnings and plan to fix that before the  release of 3.4. This may cause some warnings to become visible before release that will need fixing but some of those issues will be problematic with python 3.10 which will be released in the lifetime of 3.4.
*Fixes for task failure handling on the console were merged into bitbake to reduce duplicate output where log files may be printed multiple times.
*Expansion errors in bitbake should now print variable dependency chains making them easier to understand/debug.
*Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on these 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
