Key Status/Updates:
- YP 3.2.1 is due for imminent release
- YP 3.3 M1 has been through QA and currently under review from the TSC
- Patches for 3.3 M2 are now being reviewed, tested and merged.
- The project’s work on reproducibility was mentioned in their monthly newsletter https://reproducible-builds.org/reports/2020-11/
- CVE statistics continue to look worse for master after ‘improvements’ to the matching code, help in resolving these newly highlighted issues would be much appreciated.
- Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur. 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
- Given the vacation many people are taking at this time and the expected ramp down in patch load and newsworthy items, we’re not planning another status report until 5th January. The project technical and triage meetings will also ramp down for this period and resume in the first week of January unless there is any pressing development that needs urgent attention.
Ways to contribute:
- There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
- There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 3.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.3_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
- 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.
