Key Status/Updates:

   -

   YP 4.3.2 was released
   -

   YP 5.0 M2 and YP 3.1.31 are in QA
   -

   The shadow sstate library dependency issues were reworked to avoid
   static libs after various problems were reported, thanks Alexander Kanavin
   for resolving this.
   -

   We have dropped the 6.1 kernel leaving just 6.6 in master for our 5.0
   release
   -

   We were able to get a number of libtool patches merged upstream and the
   libunwind recipe was cleaned up a lot too.
   -

   Patches to fix rust tests are queued, thanks Yash for getting these
   working again.
   -

   The inherit_defer changes have merged. There are some reported issues of
   poor interaction with class-native overrides. There isn’t a regression but
   unfortunately inherit_defer has an unforeseen issue with the override
   handling. See bug 15361
   -

   We’ve opted to keep rng-tools in OE-Core for now since it appears a
   small subset of hardware does require it.
   -

   It is great to see patches adding test cases for the issues they’re
   fixing or functionality they’re adding. We cannot stress how useful this is
   over the medium/long term to keep things maintained, thanks!


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 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 5.0. See:
   
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.0_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.

   -

   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.
