Key Status/Updates:

·         Yocto Project 2.5 (sumo) released.

·         The technical call on 1st May started discussions on 2.6 planning. Some threads were started on the openembedded-architecture mailing list for some of the topics which need discussion. The email linked to below details the planning process we will be following along with some of the possible ideas for 2.6: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2018-April/150040.html

·         A further 2.6 planning meeting will be scheduled at the same time as the original meeting on 15th May to continue the discussion (8am PST, 4pm GMT).

·         Patches are merging into master but as ever, there are challenges in identifying the root cause of regressions and ensuring the patches causing them don’t merge.

·         We are noticing some a minor issues with uninative, an issue with non-IA statically linked security flags and a few other misc issues.

·         The number of “unowned” bugs in bugzilla is substantially increasing

·         The number of attendees at the bug triage meeting is very low compared to normal

·         The number of committed features for 2.6 is currently significantly lower than previous releases
