'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 moved to an rc3 build since a kernel/qemu/drm issue was found which warranted a rebuild. This has not been picked up by QA yet.
*YP 4.0.10 is ready to release after TSC review
*YP 4.0.9 was released.
*YP 4.2.1 is in QA
*Since 4.2 rc3 was being built with kennel stable series updates, some CVE fixes and a high priority bitbake bug were also fixed.
*M1 is approaching fast (two weeks left), so please try and get any major changes submitted soon.
*Patches are merging into master for 4.3.
*Patches have been merging into master, thanks to everyone for both review feedback and iterating on patches
*We’d like to thank Paul Eggleton for some great work on the documentation and release notes and catching a number of areas where we could improve the documentation for things that changed in this release.
*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.
