'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 M3 was released
*YP 4.0.10 is ready to release after TSC review
*YP 4.0.8 is in QA
*YP 4.2.1 is in QA
*YP 4.1.3 is ready for QA
*M1 is approaching fast (two weeks left), so please try and get any major changes submitted soon.
*We are now in feature freeze for 4.2. We are continuing to merge some version upgrades where the stability of the release is unlikely to be affected.
*Patches have been merging into master, thanks to everyone for both review feedback and iterating on patches
*Patches continue to merge into master and there are some good bug fixes in there
*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.
*There is a bugfix for bitbake’s XMLRPC server mode but the lack of bug reports raise a concern about how widely it is being used.
*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.
*There are a number of ptest related issues (mostly test naming) which the new regression reports are highlighting. If anyone is interested in helping clean up and improve the ptests and toolchain tests, please let us know.
*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.
*CVE levels in the LTS releases are at higher levels than they have been for a while which is a concern.
*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 have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
