Key Status/Updates:

2.8 M1 has been released.
Mailing lists issues are continuing to be worked on as a top priority.
We have a new “newcomer” bug category which are bugs suited to someone new to the project. These can be seen here: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs
Several key reproducibility fixes have merged, thanks Joshua!
The autobuilder has suffered stability issues with its NFS setup, seemingly related to the increased load from the new servers. We’re monitoring changes, hoping they fix the issue.
We had significant problems with the versioning of libcrypt in recent distros which resulted in the need for a new uninative release. This fixes autobuilder builds.

Planned Releases for YP 2.8:

Planned upcoming dot releases:

YP 2.7.1 (Warrior) is planned for build imminently now that 2.8 M1 is done but is pending the new uninative changes.
YP 2.6.3 (Thud) is intended for build after 2.7.1 is complete and before 2.8 M2
