Key Status/Updates:

*         1.9M2 is in QA, tests so far have shown some issues, only an lsb/shadow password issue may trigger an rc2 from the test results so far.

*         Richard is travelling atm. We have tried a build of various queued patches on the autobuilder with only around a 80% success rate of the patches which is disappointing. Some have been missing very basic testing. This means patch merging will slow down, now likely until after we decide if we run an M2 rc2 or not.

*         The "random" autobuilder failures continue to cause problems. We're looking into the issues and there should be bugs being filed under the "master bug" https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7983

*         Tinfoil2 (the new version of tinfoil that works with memory resident bitbake) is progressing but as we try and do new things with the bitbake APIs, we're exposing issues we need to fix before we can make it work.

*         The knock on effect of the issues we're having is that some of the features we're considering may not make 1.9.
