Key Status/Updates:

·         YP 2.6 M3 rc1 has completed QA and should be published today.

·         The release of M3 is reluctant since there are a number of open bugs, 
a number of ptest regressions and some questions about build performance 
regressions.

·         A number of good ptest fixes have already merged and we’re hoping to 
rerun those tests to check the status before we build M4.

·         “Manual” QA test definitions merged into oeqa which means all 
testcases are now documented in our metadata and this is definitive now rather 
than testopia.

·         With upcoming changes to Yocto Project QA, its desirable to have 
better test result reporting merged into the codebase, particularly for the 
stable release process in the future. Unfortunately these patches aren’t quite 
ready to merge yet but it's probably better to hold the release until they’re 
ready.

·         Since M3 is now being released we will create the thud branches this 
week in preparation for the main 2.6 release.

·         The project provided a response to the automated testing survey 
recently carried out, the response can be viewed at 
https://elinux.org/Yocto_project_survey_response and gives a good overview of 
the different kinds of testing the project performs.

·         There is a recently found bug in “_remove” operator handling which 
may mean changes to its documented behaviour in order to address the issues 
found (remove operations aren’t reflected in sstate hashes currently).

·         It was discovered that the new autobuilder wasn’t testing the ipk/deb 
packaging backends so this was fixed and some issues with the test cases was 
also resolved.
