'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*The YP 4.3 (M4) rc1 build is still pending
*YP 5.0 rc4 is in QA.
*For the 4.3 release, the 6.5 serial port issues are still presenting a challenge. We have merged a workaround which seems to fix things for the majority of cases. There is also a second proposed patch from upstream which may help. The dilemma is which option to go for in the release and the time implications of the choice as one is tested and one is not.
*YP 3.1.33, The final dunfell build will follow 5.0 into QA.
*The only other potential issue for 4.3 is the strace ptest image space issues which is still being worked on.
*YP 4.0.18 is behind 3.1.33 for QA.
*Patchtest did merge to OE-Core and will be included in the release allowing users to locally test their patches before submission using the same code/tests we will ultimately run against mailing list submissions. This is late in the cycle but important to help users and standalone code so worthwhile adding since it was ready. Thanks Trevor!
*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 were multiple CVE fixes merged over the last week to ensure the release had recent widely publicized CVEs addressed.
*The master branch has diverged from scarthgap and we’re trying to keep up to date with incoming patches there.
*Toaster has had upgrades to key components which help address security issues and patches are merging to enable testing to be resumed and ultimately, automated.
*There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability as well as build performance graphing improvements.
*There was a big improvement in reproducibility for rust. Unfortunately this hasn’t addressed all the issues but is a big step forward and great to see progress on what was a really difficult to track down issue, thanks Sundeep.
*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
*The project is pleased to have a new content delivery network (CDN) available to share sstate from the autobuilder with. See the entry in local.conf.sample on how to use it.
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.
*After consultation and discussions the project is now about to document its security processes to complete the work in this area. Please watch the mailing lists such as the architecture list if you have an interest in this area.
*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: 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.
