Key Status/Updates:

*       YP 4.1.2 is in QA
*       A large number of package upgrades have merged bringing us up to
date with various upstreams.
*       We have started moving code out of core bbclass files into the
function libraries to help reduce parsing memory use, volumes of data
transfer and sstate signature data sizes. Help is welcome in developing
further patches to improve our function libraries.
*       The autobuilder controller has been relocated to deal with
connectivity issues, we do have some issues to iron out before things are
back to normal service. We were unable to upgrade the buildbot version as
there were too many other moving pieces.
*       We are trying to upgrade uninative to include libgcc to deal with
pthread_cancel failures.  Newer versions of patchelf are proving problematic
and appear to be causing segfaults and we're trying to untangle this from
other issues.
*       We have reverted the tune for qemux86-64 back to corei7-64 since we
still have v2 hardware that won't work properly with v3 under KVM and
similar.
*       A uninative bug has been exposed by recent bitbake datastore
improvements which could cause sstate to be missed/duplicated.
*       We merged a number of neat rust improvements which add on target
cargo support and added automated QA tests for this functionality so we can
ensure it continues to work and doesn't regress. Thanks Alex Kiernan, we
hope to see more series like this one!
*       CVE levels in master are becoming worrying again, help would be
appreciated to address the open issues.
*       The autobuilder maintenance window now occurs on Mondays.
*       We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is
appreciated.

 

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: patchtest, layerindex,
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 are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project:
<https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers>
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*       There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 4.2. See:
<https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.1_Unassigned_Enha
ncements.2FBugs>
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_Unassigned_Enhan
cements.2FBugs
*       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/mai
ntainers.inc>
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/main
tainers.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:
