Key Status/Updates:
 • YP 6.0.1 is due for release
 • YP 6.1 M1 is in QA
 • We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes 
needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
 • An initial round of patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage in OE-Core 
have now merged
 • AUH is now running daily in incremental mode so we can avoid large batches 
of upgrade patches and spread them out as well as reacting more quickly to new 
upstream releases. We’re still tweaking some of the behaviours and reporting 
but if anyone has feedback/concerns, let us know.
 • We’ve deliberately aimed to get up to date with the AUH success patches to 
better evaluate the ongoing upgrades.
 • We have merged support for `devtool upgrade --stable` and the 
upstream-stable-release-point bbclass. We hope to use this to track upstream 
projects with known good stable release series, but we need input and 
discussion on what the criteria should be. Please participate in the discussion 
on the OE-Architecture list: 
_https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119437109_
 • Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from 
last week:
   • several qemu ‘hang’ type issues - the qemu upgrade merged, at least some 
issues still occur
   • sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
   • siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
   • groff build race issues
   • intermittent ptest failures in many recipes (python3-click was tweaked)
 • We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 
6.1 and beyond. We have a roadmap document in Google Docs: 
_https://docs.google.com/document/d/12xgAzSjDj5zVlo4eQIbiv1s3QMjtBTCvBFY3_T7OPto_

Want to contribute? We would appreciate help with the following areas:
 • We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to work 
on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C would be 
greatly appreciated. 
_https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=661406&priority=High&priority=Medium%2B&product=Pseudo&query_format=advanced&resolution=---_
 • There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder, any 
help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would be welcome! 
_https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/_
 • Many recipes in openembedded-core would benefit from a new recipe 
maintainer. Please look at 
_https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc_
 and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes.
