Key Status/Updates:

   -

   YP 5.0.15 is in QA
   -

   YP 6.0 M1 will build when the 5 open high bugs are resolved.
   -

   We have a number of issues with build performance tests, test results
   and hanging glibc NFS tests on the autobuilder which need to be resolved
   before we can build a new release.
   -

   Due to the number of problems currently present, patch merging will have
   to slow to avoid adding any further issues.
   -

   Yoann Congal is starting to ramp up as the new LTS maintainer to take
   over from Steve Sakoman
   -

   The linux kernel is now defaulting to 6.18 and the other versions will
   soon be removed.
   -

   We have isolated the Fedora43 workers until we can root cause the binary
   problems it was causing when the sstate was shared to older systems
   -

   The project is exploring the idea of applying for funding for security
   related work. If anyone (individual or consultancies) has ideas, please
   talk to Paul/Richard/TSC. This is an opportunity to work on those issues
   you never have time/funding for!
   -

   We will be entirely disabling the npm fetcher in bitbake due to the
   security issues until those are resolved (
   https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D16105).


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. Hel=
p
   is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
   -

   There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to
   making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarb=
all
   and SDK). We=E2=80=99d love assistance in moving this forward and gettin=
g some kind
   of upstream feature merged to make this easier:
   https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260
   -

   There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project:
   https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
   -

   We have also started to identify inactive bugs which need retesting to
   confirm if they still apply:
   https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#retest-container
   -

   There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 6.0. See:
   https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_6.0_Unassigned_Enh=
ancements/Bugs
   -

   We=E2=80=99d 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 =E2=80=9CUnassigned=E2=80=
=9D 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=E2=80=99re cont=
inuing to
   see by searching for the =E2=80=9CAB-INT=E2=80=9D tag in bugzilla:
   https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=3DAB-INT.
   -

   Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
   <https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/>
   -

   We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
   appreciated.
   -

   Regarding bugs, even if you can=E2=80=99t fix a bug, submitting a failin=
g test
   case that can reproduce the issue significantly improves the chances it
   might get fixed.
   -

   Further help on optimizing build disk usage would be most welcome.
   -

   Ongoing project development plans are being developed in this document:
   https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4=
rjD830A/edit?usp=3Dsharing

We need to continue to develop this as it will allow us to potentially find
ways to fund specific work items.
