'''SWAT Team Rotation:'''<br/>
'''Next Team Meetings:'''<br/>
*Bug Triage meeting Thursday May 9th at 7:30 am PDT (https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09)

*Twitch -  See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester


*SWAT lead is currently: Anuj
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*SWAT team rotation: Anuj -> Armin on Mar. 15, 2019
*YP 3.1.33 has been released
*SWAT team rotation: Armin -> Paul on Mar. 23, 2019
*YP 4.0.18 is due to be released
*https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team
*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 Please consider signing this to show support for those changes. Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for these changes.
*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.  
*There are proposals on the openembedded-architecture list to rework how do_unpack works, switching it from WORKDIR to a new variable and changing some directory layout.
*The introduction of UNPACKDIR has happened, maintainers should be able to improve their S=WORKDIR recipes (which should use S, not WORKDIR/UNPACKDIR) and fix the common use of WORKDIR in do_compile/do_install to access files from SRC_URI which should now be UNPACKDIR.
*gcc 14 has patches pending thanks for Khem and Martin in particular. Merging the new gcc version is needed to generate new uninative tarballs to support Fedora 40 builds or any other distro using the new gcc version.
*The project is in the process of testing a new way of hosting our autobuilder with plans to switch soon if successful. Our existing hardware is past end of life and showing increased hardware failures so is currently down on capacity meaning builds are taking longer than normal.
*Mailing list changes now mean any google hosted email accounts have the mailing list From: address rewritten. This had impacted our ability to handle patches but key maintainers now have workarounds for this.


'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7 M2 rc2 was released on May 5, 2019.
*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!
*We believe we now have all the key components for 2.7M3 in master-next but have not completed a successful test run with this. In addition to the list last week, this means M3 will include:
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
**5.0 kernel
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
**qemuarm transition to armv7
*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. 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.
**Busybox full replacement utils
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT.
*Some invalid source revisions tested in master-next have broken the autobuilder causing build hangs and failures. With travel and other distractions, nobody is available to dive in and debug this immediately so it will block M3.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*We also want to complete the transition to the new QA process and test this for M3. Aproov is going to send out details of this imminently, we believe the main code work is complete and its process/documentation that remains. We will block on this as we want to use the new QA process for M3 and the final 2.7 release.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*YP 2.5.3 continues to be blocked on autobuilder-helper changes for the stable branches and the resulttool changes in master to move to the new QA process.
