Key Status/Updates:

• YP 3.0.3 is in QA and due out on 21st May
• Gcc 10 merged to master, with the ‘no-common’ default change disabled for now whilst we address the other gcc 10 issues first, then we’ll loop back to that.
• We are struggling with autobuilder infrastructure problems, in particular with NFS locking but also with cancelled builds not terminating correctly. These are having a significant negative impact on master and all stable builds and are a significant concern as there is no clear path forward to any resolution.
• Patches continue to merge into master but at a slower rate than normal. The patch submission rate has dropped slightly which has helped ensure there isn’t a huge backlog.
• We’re moving the AUH job functionality to the autobuilder and integrating it there which should mean it's easier to reproduce its functionality and allows more people to see what it's doing and work on/with it. This should also reduce hosting costs.
