*YP 4.1.2 is in QA
*YP 4.1.2 is due to be released and YP 3.1.22 is in QA
*A large number of package upgrades have merged bringing us up to date with various upstreams.
*We had a few annoying intermittent autobuilder bug fixes this week, thanks to anyone who helped fix those!
*We have started moving code out of core bbclass files into the function libraries to help reduce parsing memory use, volumes of data transfer and sstate signature data sizes. Help is welcome in developing further patches to improve our function libraries.
*Failures on the autobuilder slowed down patch testing and merging as builds took a long time to stabilize. Thankfully we believe the most frequently occurring issues have been fixed so things should speed up again a little this week.
*The autobuilder controller has been relocated to deal with connectivity issues, we do have some issues to iron out before things are back to normal service. We were unable to upgrade the buildbot version as there were too many other moving pieces.
*We are trying to upgrade uninative to include libgcc to deal with pthread_cancel failures.  Newer versions of patchelf are proving problematic and appear to be causing segfaults and we’re trying to untangle this from other issues.
*We have reverted the tune for qemux86-64 back to corei7-64 since we still have v2 hardware that won’t work properly with v3 under KVM and similar.
*A uninative bug has been exposed by recent bitbake datastore improvements which could cause sstate to be missed/duplicated.
*We merged a number of neat rust improvements which add on target cargo support and added automated QA tests for this functionality so we can ensure it continues to work and doesn’t regress. Thanks Alex Kiernan, we hope to see more series like this one!
*CVE levels in master are becoming worrying again, help would be appreciated to address the open issues.

*The autobuilder maintenance window now occurs on Mondays.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
