Key Status/Updates:

·        YP 2.4 (Rocko) Final was released on Thursday Oct. 26th.  It contained 
a number of key new features including; upgrades to the kernel, gcc, glibc, and 
many other recipes; improved go support, Python 3 improvements, wic 
improvements, devtool  enhancements, Bitbake server improvements and 
significant improvements to automated QA testing, both in coverage and 
performance.

·        See the full release notes for YP 2.4 at: 
http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases/yocto/yocto-2.4/RELEASENOTES

·        We will likely open up master for new changes during this week. 
Unfortunately the feature freeze window was not respected by a significant 
number of people and this means we now have a huge backlog of patches to deal 
with.

·        YP 2.5 Planning is not complete yet. We have some idea of the 
immediate priorities but if you have other suggestions please ensure they’re in 
the bugzilla (as ever).

·        There are stability issues on the stable branches, particularly in 
getting older releases working on the newer autobuilder workers. We have a 
final point release for morty (2.2.3) planned however this depends on having 
stable builds.

·        Armin has kindly volunteered to help with the stable branch for 2.4, 
if there is any other interest please talk to RP/Armin as we could do with 
spreading load.

·        The OpenEmbedded Developer meeting in Prague seemed to go well, as did 
the Yocto Project BoF at ELC-E and the booth was well attended, as ever! Thanks 
to all those who helped out and/or attended.
