Key Status/Updates:

   -

   YP 5.0.2 is in QA.
   -

   YP 5.2 M2 is due to build next week.
   -

   An issue with code content in python library functions and their effect
   on task hashes was identified and improvements have merged to bitbake for
   this.
   -

   A patch changing the way the *FLAGS variables operate merged.
   -

   An autobuilder migration blocking issue with cpu emulation under
   qemu+KVM was identified and worked around by kernel tweaks, thanks Bruce.
   -

   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
      -

   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

The letter has proved helpful in discussions and helping influence changes
at CISA and the CVE Project so has already been useful.

   -

   We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility
   problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long
   list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately.


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.
