'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.3 M1 was released
*YP 5.0 rc4 is in QA.
*YP 3.1.26 is in QA
*YP 3.1.33, The final dunfell build will follow 5.0 into QA.
*The project has some exciting plans in progress and we're now in the fortunate position of seeking quotations for some development work. For more details please see this page on our website: https://www.yoctoproject.org/community/yocto-project-engineering-request-for-quotation/
*YP 4.0.18 is behind 3.1.33 for QA.
*The automated regression reporting saw some issues for the M1 report so this is being worked on.
*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.
*There are pending patches to enable layer-<layername> overrides which is particularly useful for enabling layer specific QA checks. This does bring some changes of behavior for QA checks on bbappends
*The master branch has diverged from scarthgap and we’re trying to keep up to date with incoming patches there.
*usrmerge is now enabled by default for poky-altcfg, in preparation for the changes being required by systemd.
*There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability as well as build performance graphing improvements.
*The 6.1 kernel hang regression was identified and we reverted the problematic patch until the correct fix merges and filters through the stable kernel trees.
*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
*There have been a lot of ptest issues this week, not least after issues with “No-section” tracebacks were fixed, leading to an increase in reported failures as that was masking issues. There are some fixes proposed for ptest-runner but further help is needed on the various failures.
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 been approached by a potential new maintainer for the eclipse plugins. There were some questions about who was still using it and what the test matrix should look like so please let us know if you are and we can connect you.
*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.
*The tunctl functionality for runqemu has been dropped as the ip tool can handle everything needed.
*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: patchtest, layerindex, 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!

We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
