Key Status/Updates:

   -

   YP 4.0.19  and YP 5.1 M1 were released
   -

   YP 5.0.2 was built and is entering QA.
   -

   There were some great patch status cleanups, thanks Alexander (will show
   in next week’s metrics)
   -

   There is a patch to improve the way the *FLAGS variables operate. It is
   possible this may change behavior in some corner cases but the usability
   improvements mean we’re likely to merge the patch and address any issues
   that arise.
   -

   Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be
   appreciated:
   -

      Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
      -

      Improved CVE tooling from Marta
      -

      bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
      -

   We had some fixes for the install-buildtools script which showed a lack
   of automated testing for it. Adding some would be an interesting first
   contribution if anyone is interested.
   -

   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.

Signatures from small businesses/consultancies are as welcome as those from
larger organizations as we want to demonstrate the breadth of the need for
these changes.

   -

   We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility
   problem in rustdoc.


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 5.1. See:
   
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_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.
