'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.1.2 is due to be released and YP 3.1.22 is in QA
*YP 5.0 has been released!
*We had a few annoying intermittent autobuilder bug fixes this week, thanks to anyone who helped fix those!
*Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to 5.0
*Failures on the autobuilder slowed down patch testing and merging as builds took a long time to stabilize. Thankfully we believe the most frequently occurring issues have been fixed so things should speed up again a little this week.
*YP 3.1.33 has passed QA and is due to release
*CVE levels in master are becoming worrying again, help would be appreciated to address the open issues.
*YP 4.0.18 is in QA.
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
*Updates to graphing on the patch/CVE metrics page 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 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. The CVE Project announced support for more information fields on CVEs which is a good start.
*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.
*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.

*YP 4.1.2 and YP 3.1.22 were released
*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!
*YP 4.2 M2 is due to build this week.
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*Stable builds have been proving hard to obtain due to varying issues over many of the submitted patches. This has limited patch flow over the last week.
*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
*We were able to merge 6.1 kernel improvements and a number of good bug fixes in other areas too.
*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.
*There has been an improvement to the configurability of patch warnings/errors and patch fuzz issues will now error and stop builds by default.
*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.
*Warning/errors over missing Upstream-Status details in non-core layers appears too controversial to enable by default but the option is now available should users wish to.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*CVE levels in master are becoming worrying again, Ross helpfully summarized the situation and submitted CPE changes for some of the issues being highlighted, thanks!
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
