Key Status/Updates:

   -

   YP 4.0.24 was released
   -

   YP 5.2 M2 has completed QA and is under review.
   -

   YP 5.0.7 was built and is ready for QA.
   -

   We are now 4 weeks from feature freeze for 5.2
   -

   Patch flow has continued normally, many good fixes, some upgrades and
   kernel stable updates were merged.
   -

   Issues were identified in gomod mirror handling which means the
   autobuilder meta-oe mirroring target now continually fails. We need to find
   a solution to this issue ASAP. The alternative is we drop meta-oe mirroring.
   -

   We plan to merge b4 configuration file support, thanks Quentin.
   -

   Due to issues with newer glibc and issues with the valgrind upgrade, we
   will drop valgrind ptest support since nobody can maintain it.
   -

   Toolchain selection via virtual recipe specific providers was merged
   -

   Patches for newer binutils, gdb and glibc are pending.
   -

   The binutils upgrade removes gold linker support so that will be removed
   from core.
   -

   The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document:
   
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing

We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so
far!

Ways to contribute:

   -

   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!
   -

   There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to
   making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarball
   and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting some kind
   of upstream feature merged to make this easier:
   https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260
   -

   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 5.2. See:
   
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.2_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
   -

   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.
   -

   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.
   -

   Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
   <https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/>
   -

   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
   appreciated.
   -

   Regarding bugs, even if you can’t fix a bug, submitting a failing test
   case that can reproduce the issue significantly improves the chances it
   might get fixed.
   -

   Further help on optimizing build disk usage would be most welcome.
