'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 rc2 has passed QA and is likely to be released once we have TSC approval and the release notes and migration guide are ready.
*YP 4.0.10 is ready to release after TSC review
*YP 4.0.9 passed QA and is also due to be released imminently.
*YP 4.2.1 is in QA
*Patches have started to land in master for 4.3 and the branch is open for development
*M1 is approaching fast (two weeks left), so please try and get any major changes submitted soon.
*The OE TSC has been discussing some focused work on improving the patch submission and new user documentation. There are currently multiple out of date documents in various wikis and READMEs which contain good information but also things which are obsolete. The aim is to identify the documents which should be merged and turn them into one comprehensive document, likely in the Yocto Project documentation set. This new document would also address some of the changes in developer background we’re seeing, such as being unfamiliar with mailing lists.
*Patches have been merging into master, thanks to everyone for both review feedback and iterating on patches
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*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 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.
*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.
