Key Status/Updates:

• Yocto Project “Zeus” 3.0 has been released! Thank you to everyone who contributed patches, bugs, feedback and testing. Some very rough git metrics say that 182 different people have contributed patches to this cycle.
• This week is ELC-E in Lyon, so meetings are limited. If anyone reading this is there please do visit the Yocto Project booth and say hello!
• Patches have been flowing fast into master. Due to ELC-E this will slow down this week, but Ross will continue to collect patches for testing in ross/mut.
• There are ongoing intermittent autobuilder failures, particularly in selftest but in other areas too. There is a separate email about this and we could do with help in debugging and resolving those issues.
• YP 2.6.4 was built and has passed QA, will be released imminently.
• YP 2.7.2 was held due to an unexplained test failure but will now be built in the next few days.
• Armin and Anuj have volunteered to maintain Zeus and they plan to work out the maintainership between them, thanks!
• We have begun collecting ideas for YP 3.1 in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UKZIGe88-eq3-pOPtkAvFAegbQDzhy_f4ye64yjnABc/edit?usp=sharing
• If anyone has any status items for the project they’d like to add to the weekly reports, please email Richard+Stephen.
