Current Dev Position: YP 2.1 M4 (Stabilization only milestone.)

Next Deadline: YP 2.1 Final Release Target: April 29, 2016


SWAT team rotation: Ross -> Randy

https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team


Key Status/Updates:

*        YP 2.1 M4.rc2 is in QA and it is hoped this will become the final 2.1 release.

*        We have found a number of issues since but nothing with enough impact to mean we'd rebuild as yet.

*        WDD did continue to fall slightly yet again which is a nice change!

*        2.2 planning continues. Current high level plans include:

o   Finishing the integration work of patchwork, patchtest, SWAT team, error reporting system and related process improvements

o   "multi-configuration" builds, potentially leading to distributed builds,

o   Moving to python 3.x, at least for Bitbake

o   Encourage adoption of new tools (toaster, eSDK, CROPS)

*        If you have enhancements you'd like to see in 2.2, please do make sure the bugzilla has entries for them.

*        We need to choose a maintainer for 2.1 (krogoth), if interested please talk to Richard although we do have some volunteers already.



Key YP 2.1 Dates:

YP 2.1 Final Release Target: April 29, 2016 (Still on Track)


Tracking Metrics:

            WDD 2394 (last week 2499)

Have the eSDK and CROPS projects been announced publicly? Are they available
for us to "play with"?

eSDK is the "extensible SDK', or what appears when you do bitbake image -c
populate_sdk_ext.  This should be in the manual already, the tl;dr is that
its an SDK you can manipulate after installation.

CROPS is docker magic to do builds on Windows/Mac.  Todor did a
presentation at ELC: http:

I was *very* excited to learn about CROPS at ELC, which is why I was wondering
if it was available to experiment with somewhere?

The slides have links to the git repos and some instructions.  I'm sure
Todor would help if you have any specific questions.
