*YP 3.1.21 has passed QA and will be released.
*YP 4.2 M1 is due to be built this week, likely once we merge a few remaining patches and hopefully some CVE fixes.
*It is Yocto Project Summit and OEDVM this week so many people will be attending those events. Thanks to everyone participating or helping enable to happen.
*Thanks to everyone who attended or helped contribute to the Yocto Summit, it seemed to be a success and had some good presentations!
*There is some discussion on the architecture list about some changes to bitbake including adding new API to handle python libraries.
*There are a number of bitbake patches pending with an unresolved dilemma on functionality versus parsing speeds.
*In particular we have a dilemma on whether to accept a parsing overhead for improved variable flag handling (export, unexport, network flags) or for better cache data to improve hash debugging.
*CVEs in master have risen with 7 across 5 components, help in bringing the numbers down would be appreciated
*Unfs was upgraded and automated testing enabled. Being able to mount a local filesystem into qemu images or real hardware as the rootfs over NFS can be a useful way to develop or debug issues so it is timely to remind people this is possible. No special user permissions are needed as it is handled in userspace.
*We are starting to see some rough plans around Y2038, largefile support and some other topics, thanks to all those helping move this forward, there has been some useful discussion and we look forward to seeing the changes!
*We’d welcome a proposal/series on how to move forward with the Y2038 work for 32 bit platforms.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: patchtest, layerindex, devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
