Key Status/Updates:

   -

   YP 5.0.17 was released
   -

   YP 6.0 M3 was released
   -

   YP 4.0.35 is in QA
   -

   YP 6.0 M4 is due to build
   -

   We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
   -

   Various fixes have merged or are planned to merge before the M4 release
   build:
   -

      Various CVE issue resolutions from CVE triage
      -

      Reproducibility issues with strace/apr-util
      -

      Make race in groff
      -

      Shadow-native tallylog issue fix
      -

      Upgrade of barebox to align with an LTS release
      -

      Implementation of a wrapper for openat2, fixing Fedora 44 beta build
      failures
      -

      Sbom-cve-check upgrade (along with dependencies)
      -

   Issues still pending:
   -

      32bit x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074
      <https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D16074>)
      -

      Intermittent qemu boot failures of qemuarmv5 (and possibly qemuarm)
      since the last kernel upgrade
      -

      Intermittent wic failures on the autobuilder
      -

   At this point we will likely run the release build as the remaining
   issues aren=E2=80=99t critical to end users and we have no clear timefra=
me for
   resolution of them
   -

   git:// protocol access to git.yoctoproject.org and git.openembeded.org
   is deprecated and going forward https:// URLs should be used to access
   git repositories. We are aiming to discontinue git protocol use.
   -

   We=E2=80=99re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent bu=
ild
   failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth fo=
r
   changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features mak=
ing
   it into the LTS.
   -

   The final whinlatter build is happening this week.


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=3D661406&priority=
=3DHigh&priority=3DMedium%2B&product=3DPseudo&query_format=3Dadvanced&resol=
ution=3D---
   -

   There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder,
   any help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would b=
e
   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/inc=
lude/maintainers.inc
   and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes.
