'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2.4 and YP 4.3.1 were released
*YP 5.0 rc4 is in QA.
*YP 4.3.1 carries a release note about the intermittent failures that are causing problems for the builds, we’re lacking capacity to address several of them.
*YP 3.1.33, The final dunfell build will follow 5.0 into QA.
*YP 3.1.30 rc2 is in QA
*YP 4.0.18 is behind 3.1.33 for QA.
*The YP 5.0 M1 build is still pending, we’re hoping for several intermittent issue fixes first
*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.
*The intermittent issues on the autobuilder are causing problems for master branch development and stable releases and this is slowing down patch testing and merging. We simply don't have enough people to fix the issues quickly enough and the people we do have are struggling. This is now slowly down point release approvals too as a knock on effect.
*The master branch has diverged from scarthgap and we’re trying to keep up to date with incoming patches there.
*We plan to disable the rust selftest code in the hope this allows us to upgrade the version since we’re rapidly falling behind. The upgrades also break zvariant and the limited reproducibility testing we had working unfortunately.
*There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability as well as build performance graphing improvements.
*Several important fixes for useradd functionality have merged.
*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
*Patches for python-maturin support have been proposed but there are challenges with reproducibility currently hindering merging.
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.
*Regarding bugs, even if you can’t fix a bug, submitting a failing test case that can reproduce the issue significantly improves the chances it might get fixed.
*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.
