'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.2 M1 and YP 4.0.6 passed QA and are due for release.
*YP 5.0 has been released!
*Builds on the autobuilder are problematic at present due to connection losses with the controller machine. We understand the cause and will be migrating the controller to a new server/location to address this.
*Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to 5.0
*That, combined with OOM issues from recent bitbake cache changes meant patches are merging more slowly this week.
*YP 3.1.33 has passed QA and is due to release
*There are a number of bitbake patches pending which are a bit more invasive than usual. These are aiming to address:
*YP 4.0.18 is in QA.
**memory issues seen with the recent cache changes and bitbake -S
*Updates to graphing on the patch/CVE metrics page merged
**UI hangs where the bitbake server has crashed/hung or otherwise failed
*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.
**issues where bitbake may have removed another server instances bitbake.sock network socket file
*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 CVE Project announced support for more information fields on CVEs which is a good start.
**console interaction issues where bitbake may not respond to Ctrl+C
*Some CVE information is being provided for issues in meta-openembedded, this has been provided with help from the Sovereign Tech Fund.
**event handler race issues around datastore accesses
*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.  
*The OE TSC decided in favour of adding export flag expansion despite the performance impact so that patch will be queued.
*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.
*CVE levels in master are concerning again
 
*With some debugging, the bitbake.sock disappearance was potentially identified and also issues with OOM process killing locking up bitbake’s server and UI were studied.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*There will be no status report next week, the next will be 3rd January 2023.

*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.
