Key Status/Updates:

• 3.1.2 was released
• 3.2 M2 is currently under QA
• We continue to see qemumips systemd (poky-altcfg) image testing failures for unknown  reasons although it does seem linked to the poor performance of mips emulation under qemu. 
• The project has published a plan related to use of inclusive language within the project (covering Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded).  This was posted to the openembedded-architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/inclusive_language_summary/75821819
• Documentation covering the potential “future directions” for Yocto Project has been published: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/yocto_project_future/75845140
• You can see the rest of 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 with any of these would be much appreciated.

• One way to help the project is to help us with bugs that are currently unassigned but ideally needed during YP 3.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
• Help with any of the recent failed AUH recipe upgrades would also be appreciated.
