Key Status/Updates:

• The stable maintainer for the 3.1 LTS release is Steve Sakoman
• YP 3.1 (dunfell) has been announced as an LTS release: https://www.yoctoproject.org/yocto-project-long-term-support-announced/
• Patches have started merging again into master. We’ve already had some challenging issues to debug with them on the autobuilder where the root cause turned out to be an underlying QA test code issue exposed by test ordering issues.
• Master branch development will open up later this week, there are already some patches queued and tested in master-next
• The multilib discussion on the openembedded-architecture list has continued with the potential of new bitbake support to better enable class extensions (which enable native and nativesdk variants as well as multilib).
• We’ve identified some issues with the new buildtools-extended-tarball so we’ll be making a new version of that and porting fixes to the stable branch.
• We are aware of some issues with bug trend metrics this week due to server transitions and are working to resolve those.
