Key Status/Updates:
- YP 3.0.1 was released.
- Python 2.x has been removed from HOSTTOOLS so OE-Core is python2 use free.
- Hash Equivalency has been enabled by default for poky using a local server.
- YP 3.1 M1 was due to be built but issues have been encountered in the release builds, both with previously unseen hash equivalence issue and a ptest performance regression on the autobuilders. Both issues are being worked on but are further delaying a successful M1 build.
- Intermittent build failures continue to hamper builds, particularly combined with the above issues and as few people are available to attempt to debug and resolve them.
- Patch review and testing has run into new issues with a number of regressions from upgrades causing instability. Most of these were isolated pre-merge but not all.
- The TSC is working on LTS plans, productive discussions have been had and a new policy on handling this and stable releases should be available in the coming weeks.
- We are continuing to collect ideas for YP 3.1 in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UKZIGe88-eq3-pOPtkAvFAegbQDzhy_f4ye64yjnABc/edit?usp=sharing
