'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 M1 is due to be built this week, likely once we merge a few remaining patches and hopefully some CVE fixes.
*YP 4.0.10 is ready to release after TSC review
*Thanks to everyone who attended or helped contribute to the Yocto Summit, it seemed to be a success and had some good presentations!
*YP 4.2.1 is in QA
*There are a number of bitbake patches pending with an unresolved dilemma on functionality versus parsing speeds.
*M1 is approaching fast (two weeks left), so please try and get any major changes submitted soon.
*CVEs in master have risen with 7 across 5 components, help in bringing the numbers down would be appreciated
*Patches have been merging into master, thanks to everyone for both review feedback and iterating on patches
*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 need to upgrade to gcc 13 soon, this is blocking enabling Fedora 38 workers on the autobuilder as we don’t have a compatible uninative release.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*There are time64 patches being proposed to handle Y2038 issues on 32 bit architectures which likely need further discussion since the compiler flag changes aren’t without risk and potential side effects.
*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!
*We’re aiming to improve documentation as we go along in this release, please keep this in mind when sending patches. Adding to the documentation as we go will make the release a lot easier.
*Autobuilder instability is a concern as known good builds are regularly hitting issues, particularly the “ubuntu 20.04 libgcc not found” issue which is likely python version specific but there are other intermittent issues too. As an example, three of the last nightly builds failed in succession. Due to the intermittent nature of these bugs, few people are willing to spend time on them but they mean patches are being very slow to merge. Help is very much needed but it is hard to be specific about where/what the issue is unfortunately.

We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
