*SWAT team rotation: Paul -> Ross on Feb. 15, 2019
*YP 5.0 rc4 is in QA.

*YP 4.0.18 is behind 3.1.33 for QA.
*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 master branch has diverged from scarthgap and we’re trying to keep up to date with incoming patches there.
*There are also patches under review for the patch/cve metrics page to improve the usability as well as build performance graphing improvements.
*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, which would improve our ability to analyze CVEs, and that of many other projects (including other distros) to do so too.
*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.


'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP M2 rc1 had major problems in perl as fallout from the perl upgrade and switch to perl-cross. We’ve therefore built an rc2 based on a more recent master.
*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!
*The python upgrade to 3.7 merged, thanks to AlexK for his hard work on this. It means all of the major components in OE-Core are finally up to date (many minor versions are still adrift).
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*Major util-linux changes have just merged which should hopefully allow easier long term maintenance of this recipe (all binaries now have their own package, this recipe kept being split up)
*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
*Build performance tests on the autobuilder have been improved and builds now have automated result comparisons, e.g.: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/20190212-7/testresults/buildperf-ubuntu1604/perf-ubuntu1604_master_20190212045844_be52da1.html (from https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/92/builds/101) (Thanks to Markus for a lot of the underlying code/work)
*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.
*Build performance can now compare master to master-next test builds
*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.
*We continue to need help with ptest, both on the tests themselves and on the results reporting. The intent is to have something similar to the build performance pieces above.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*The recipe reporting system integration with the layer index is available at: https://layers.openembedded.org/rrs/recipes/OE-Core/2.7/M3/ and the historical data has now been imported.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*The project is considering moving its mailing list hosting to groups.io, if anyone has any experience of that, positive or negative please let Michael, Nico and Richard know. Note that google has made further significant changes to its mail processing at the detriment to mailing lists: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/freedesktop/2019-February/000396.html
 
*If anyone has feedback about the maintainers/recipe upgrade processes or how to attract new recipe maintainers, please talk to Richard Purdie / Ross Burton
