Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.0.5 was released.
  • There have been a number of important CVEs (e.g. the recent openssl one) which are merging to branches as they are ready, we suggest people keep an eye on the branches.
  • Patches continue to flow steadily into master.
  • The CVEs in master continue to fall and patches are flowing into the other stable branches.
  • We are making some progress with patch submission upstream, including gcc. This does sometimes mean helping resolve other issues those patches then introduce which can be time consuming, thanks go to all helping work on this.
  • The number of AB-INT issues continues to be of concern, we’re working to try and resolve the most frequently occurring issues to enable cleaner test runs but could use help.
  • We do have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, for example a number of rust bugs were opened recently. We are probably at an all time low on numbers of people able to work on bugs too which is a worrying combination.
  • If anyone is working on features for 4.2, please do let us know about them so we can plan accordingly. Even an idea of what is coming is helpful to plan.
