Key Status/Updates:

*       YP 3.3 M3 is due to build soon, we are now at feature freeze
*       M3 has not been built yet whilst the status of various pending
patches was ascertained and several bugs investigated. A key runqueue bug in
bitbake was finally identified and resolved, other seeming state manifest
issues were traced to a bad patch. There is a performance regression which
still needs debugging and fixing. We also need to get a better understanding
of autobuilder load issues triggering intermittent failures although that
may be deferred to M4.
*       It looks like the rust addition patches will be deferred to 3.4, as
will the PR server changes.
*       Reproducibility is trending well for this release at 99.83% with a
remaining intermittent issue in ltp due to be fixed imminently. Meson and
ruby have intermittent issues, ovmf has a hardcoded path and much progress
has been made in resolving the perf issues so hopefully that will be fixed
soon. The only other issue is Go Language related.

*       "Pending" state patch review is still needed, we have some really
old stale ones which really need decisions to be made about their future. It
would help a lot if recipe maintainers could review recipe patchsets and
upstream them or remove them if they are no longer relevant. 
*       Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur and are now at a
record high level. You can see the list of failures we're continuing to see
by searching for the "AB-INT" tag in bugzilla:

Ways to contribute:

*       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 3.3. See:
<https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.3_Unassigned_Enha
ncements.2FBugs>

*       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/mai
ntainers.inc>
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/main
tainers.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.
