Current Dev Position: YP 4.3 M3 Next Deadline: 28th August 2023 YP 4.3 M3 build date Next Team Meetings: * Bug Triage meeting Thursday July 27th 7:30 am PDT ( https://zoom.us/j/454367603?pwd=ZGxoa2ZXL3FkM3Y0bFd5aVpHVVZ6dz09) * Weekly Project Engineering Sync Tuesday July 25th at 8 am PDT ( https://zoom.us/j/990892712?pwd=cHU1MjhoM2x6ck81bkcrYjRrcmJsUT09 ) * Twitch - See https://www.twitch.tv/theyoctojester Key Status/Updates: * YP 4.2.2 was released * YP 4.3 M2 has been through QA with one issue found (bug 15170) and is being reviewed by the TSC * YP 3.1.27 is in QA * Toolchain tests have continued to improve with rust tests added and 3,344,888 tests now being run with failures reduced to 8,373 (down from 210,000). * Issues in the LTP test parsing were identified and fixing this should improve the reliability of test reports. * The regression report for M2 is definitely improved on previous versions with the important data becoming clearer: https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/releases/yocto-4.3_M2.rc1/testresults/testr esult-regressions-report.txt * We're considering switching to a pre-release version of autoconf due to improvements in largefile/64 bit time support. * The project RFQ deadline has now passed, thanks to everyone who submitted. The project aims to process the responses and respond in the next couple of weeks. 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 * There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 4.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.3_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/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: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT. * Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics * We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
