Key Status/Updates:

   -

   YP 5.0.5 was released.
   -

   YP 4.0.23 is in under review.
   -

   Patch merging is continuing to flow but there are a lot of upgrades
   pending that were recently posted.
   -

   BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY was removed.
   -

   yocto-check-layer is now checking for SECURITY files and there are
   changes planned for increasing the QA checks tested for.
   -

   The yocto-testresults repository was reworked and the commits recreated
   to avoid problems with the size of the repository. The log files were
   separated to an http share here:
   https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/testresult-logarchives/

These changes pose a question/challenge for the stable branches. The
changes mean we should avoid breaking git mirroring.

   -

   As a result of this work, the reproducible builds summary page now
   functions much faster.
   -

   Several performance tweaks were made for bitbake pipe handling for large
   amounts of log data to avoid slow ptest builds and hangs.
   -

   A potential new “include_all” conf file directive (discussed on the
   openembedded-architecture list:

https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2055 )
has no strong objections and is proceeding to proof of concept

   -

   There are patches under review for the addition of configuration
   fragment management to bitbake. It does require the addition of support for
   ‘/’ characters in variable flag names (which has been requested in the past
   too).
   -

   The 5.2 development plans are being developed in this document:
   
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xsnN_HcaMhqg6Dn1P_19AnumDaUMQSdFZ_I4rjD830A/edit?usp=sharing

We need to continue to develop this, thanks to all who have contributed so
far!

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. Help
   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 tarball
   and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting 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://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
   -

   There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.2. See:
   
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.2_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
   -

   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/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 “Unassigned” 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’re continuing to
   see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla:
   https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-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’t fix a bug, submitting a failing 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.
