Key Status/Updates:

  *   YP 2.5 M2 is 97% through QA. See: 
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status
  *   YP 2.2.3 is also mostly through QA. See 
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.2_QA_Status
  *   We build 2.4.2 rc1 however rapidly moving kernel updates combined with QA 
not having started on rc1 yet meant we decided to build rc2, pulling in further 
kernel security fixes (as well as others like openssl). rc2 is currently being 
built and should enter QA today assuming a successful build.
  *   autobuilder.yoctoproject.org continues to be unavailable as we continue 
to develop the new autobuilder codebase to replace the current heavily 
customized buildbot one.
  *   We managed to shrink the ltp package size which unblocked some patch 
merging. Bruce has been working on changes to kernel-devsrc to significantly 
reduce its size.
  *   The glibc change continues to be blocked on locale issues which may prove 
tricky to resolve and will block M3 as we need the glibc upgrade for various 
reasons.
  *   We have some key decisions to make about the conflicting native of 
pkg-conf and pkgconfig. Maxin has a patch series which exposes the issues.
  *   There are problems with the changes to pseudo’s master branch verses the 
patches we have against the recipe.
  *   Please note that we are very close to M3 which is feature freeze, 
technically, feature freeze was yesterday. We’re not in a position to build M3 
yet but if there are features you expect to see in 2.5, please highlight those 
patches ASAP. We are drawing up a list of “must haves” for the release and if 
we don’t know about it, it likely won’t be on it.


Planned upcoming dot releases:

YP 2.4.2 (Rocko) is currently being built and should enter QA today.
