Key Status/Updates:

*        The M1 issues proved tricky to debug and potentially meant there were 
widespread problems however once we understood the specifics, we decided the 
rc1 M1 build could be released as built since the issues were primarily limited 
to the QA systems with specific host dependencies installed. There are patches 
in master to address the problems.

*        M1 delivers some key improvements in multiconfig builds and tinfoil2 
which should make memory resident bitbake more usable.

*        The patch backlog is being worked through but we continue to struggle 
trying to deal with the amount of breakage introduced by submitted patches. 
We're working on speeding up the turnaround time of tests like oe-selftest but 
this takes time.

*        We should have a build of the 2.2.1 release imminently which would go 
into QA when built.

*        M2 will be upon us sooner than we realize (two weeks!) and there are 
some key changes such as recipe specific sysroots and the oeqa framework rework 
pending with some potential for disruption. Wider testing of these patchsets as 
they're published would be appreciated. There remains a fundamental design 
issue with recipe specific sysroots which we've not been able to figure out a 
workaround for as yet.
