Key Status/Updates:

*	YP 2.7.2 should be released imminently.
*	The reproducibility issues from last week have been addressed and we
are hoping to enable this by default soon, thanks to everyone who helped fix
issues.
*	The news for hash equivalence is not so promising. Whilst a number
of bugs were fixed, we've found a major problem which explains some of the
failures we've seen and are currently working out how we may be able to
resolve that issue.
*	Intermittent build failures continue to hamper builds, particularly
combined with the above issues and as few people are available to attempt to
debug and resolve them.
*	The focus on hash equivalence and reproducibility has slowed patch
merging in other areas. Patch testing has been problematic as there are a
lot of regressions being found in submitted patches which also slows down
the whole merging process.
*	The TSC is working on LTS plans, productive discussions have been
had and a new policy on handling this and stable releases should be
available in the next couple of weeks.
*	We are continuing to collect ideas for YP 3.1 in this document:

*	Due to the number of key fixes being found we have delayed YP 3.0.1
being built slightly whilst we merge those fixes, it should build in the
next few days.
*	If anyone has any status items for the project they'd like to add to
the weekly reports, please email Richard and Stephen.
