Key Status/Updates:

*	YP 4.1 rc2 is now in QA
*	Richard will not be around for the next two weeks. With 4.1 rc2 in
QA for the next week, things should be quiet and the TSC can then decide on
whether to release or if an rc3 is needed for any reason. Alexandre/Luca
will test/queue patches during this time, patches are not expected to merge.
Ross is around and should be able to cover most other things if/as needed.
*	At release we released the core layer was still advertising
kirkstone so this was removed. This did mean some simple changes were needed
to layers to mark compatibility with the new release, we'll aim to do this
earlier in the next release.
