Key Status/Updates:

·         YP 2.5.2 rc1 is in QA and is 18% complete:  See https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status

·         We’re preparing for 2.7 M1 which should build this week. QA isn’t quite ready since 2.5.2 is being worked on. Most patches targeting M1 have merged at this point and apart from some QA improvement patches, M1 should be mostly ready.

·         The btibake persistdb patches related to the sstate hash equivalence code have merged. Any instability noticed in persistdb should be reported ASAP. The rest of the hash equivalency code is now mainly pending on some decisions about terminology and will merge early in M2.

·         Many of the most predominant oe-selftest bugs have now been resolved, there are a number of less frequent issues remaining and being worked upon. We’ve reached a point where builds aren’t continually throwing up new issues, many thanks to Ross in particular for fixing some knarly problems and for WindRiver for taking on several of the remaining issues.

·         There are patches queued in thud-next and sumo-next which backport the extra json QA reporting and oe-selftest fixes. These series are larger than normal and verge on feature backport but allow us to have better quality releases despite the changes in QA resourcing. As such we therefore believe they are justified and in the project’s interest.
