*YP 4.3 M1 is due to build this week
*YP 4.3 M1 has passed QA and is due to release
*The remaining issue with SPDX manifest generation on the autobuilder should have been identified and fixed so we plan to enable the create_spdx class by default in poky assuming a successful test build.
*The 6.1 kernel continues to have stability issues which appear to be introduced between 6.1.26 and 6.1.28, we’ve not seen the issue so far with 6.1.27. We know it happens on 32 and 64 bit x86 and occurs even with just one CPU enabled. This has not been seen by other kernel users which is a concern too.
*The recent 6.1 kernel stable updates appear to be causing a couple of different intermittent autobuilder issues. We’re working to try and get to the bottom of that, we’re hoping further updates to the 6.1 series may pull in fixes for the regressions.
*Patch merging has been slow this week as we struggled to bisect failures down to the problematic commits (potentially the sqlite version bump).
*We continue to see problematic intermittent failures on the autobuilder. We’re struggling to make progress against these and they are feeling overwhelming. We’re open to ideas on how we might try and address them. Experience shows that if left unresolved/ignored, people do end up hitting them in real world usage or during testing of their own products.

*There are a number of patches still queued in master-next as it is unclear whether they’re ready for various reasons. For bandwidth reasons these will likely be deferred to M2, people are just stretched too thinly to do otherwise, frustrating as it is.
*The autobuilder test matrix has seen some revisions:
*Big thanks to Ross for helping look at the high number of CVE issues open against master.
**to split out toolchain testing to a separate target
**remove some duplicate testing for efficiency
**optimize reproducibility testing to improve speed
We’re also about to add limited meta-clang testing to the test matrix.
These should improve autobuilder test execution time but has made one test race issue much more common which will need to be addressed.
