Key Status/Updates:
-
YP 5.3.4 is due to release (has been approved)
-
YP 6.0 is due to release (has been approved)
-
We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes
needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge
-
Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic
-
We have pruned the release artefacts, please let us know if any you
would like to use are missing. We’re also interested to know which ones
people actually use outside of uninative/buildtools and the BSP test images.
-
Master is open for new development
-
We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto
Project 6.1 and beyond. Please send proposals to the mailing list or raise
them during the weekly status call, Paul will be collecting these into a
project roadmap.
Want to contribute? We would appreciate help with the following areas:
-
We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to
work on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C
would be greatly appreciated.

-
There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder,
any help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would be
welcome! Yocto Project Dashboard: BugZilla Stats
-
Many recipes in openembedded-core would benefit from a new recipe
maintainer. Please look at
maintainers.inc « include « distro « conf « meta - openembedded-core - OpenEmbedded Core layer
and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes.
