'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.1.1 has passed QA and is likely to be released imminently.
*YP 5.0 rc4 is in QA.
*We’d like to remind people of the importance of developing features on master. Once ready, these can then become available in the next LTS. We do not develop features against current LTS releases, that defeats their purpose.
*YP 3.1.33, The final dunfell build will follow 5.0 into QA.
*A key bug in sstate reuse with hash equivalence where “hard” dependencies like pseudo-native and shadow-native rehash was found and is fixed in bitbake master.
*YP 4.0.18 is behind 3.1.33 for QA.
*We are thinking about more significant bitbake changes at the moment. Some ideas under consideration are:
*YP 5.0 rc2 was abandoned after issues with git in buildtools were found caused by a curl regression. 5.0 rc3 had further buildtools issues from configuration problems. 5.0 rc4 was built cleanly and went into QA to replace rc2.
**Adding extra information about hashes to the bitbake cache (and the expense of slower loading cache files and slightly slower initial parsing). This would allow easier debugging of hash mismatch issues (e.g. basehash parsing mismatches or esdk hash issues).
*The master branch has diverged from scarthgap and we’re trying to keep up to date with incoming patches there.
**Thinking about the idea of variable “filter” functions to help implementation of recipe class extensions (like native and nativesdk).
*There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability as well as build performance graphing improvements.
**Extending bitbake’s recipe syntax to support structured data.
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
*We’d welcome a proposal/series on how to move forward with the Y2038 work for 32 bit platforms.
Please consider signing this to show support for those changes, which would improve our ability to analyze CVEs, and that of many other projects (including other distros) to do so too.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*We continue to watch the NIST NVD (CVE database) situation, the lack of CPE information is problematic for us and we are considering what alternatives we have.
*Some CVE information is being provided for issues in meta-openembedded, this has been provided with help from the Sovereign Tech Fund.
*The project is sponsoring Syslinbit to separate out our CVE tooling from the build system into a standalone tool so that it can be used on software manifests of output at a later date.

*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: 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!

Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
