Key Status/Updates:

• Thanks to everyone who attended, helped out, organized or otherwise contributed to our ELC presence and YP Dev Day last week, we believe it was successful and people found it interesting and useful.
• We continue to be concerned about autobuilder stability, we’re continuing to see high numbers of intermittent failures. You can see the list of failures we’re seeing by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT

Help is urgently needed to bring these to a manageable level. We have managed to resolve or work around some of these issues over the past week and are starting to see green builds again.

• We are struggling with maintainers for some key components of the system/infrastructure such as devtool, wic, buildhistory and patchwork/patchtest. If anyone can help in these areas please contact Richard.
• If anyone has thoughts on attracting and recognising project contributors and contributions, we would be interested in ideas and assistance in that area.
• Another way to help the project is to help us with bugs that are currently unassigned but ideally needed during 3.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_3.2_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
• We’re planning to migrate the project documentation from docbook to sphinx. If you’re interested/able to help with this please join the discussion over on the docs mailing list.
