Key Status/Updates:

·         YP 2.6 M4 rc1 is in QA.  It is just getting set up, but status will show at https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.6_QA_Status when progress begins.

·         YP 2.6 rc1 was delayed significantly in order to sort out various QA test logging pieces with a view to being better able to maintain the release through its “stable series” period going forward with the loss of some of the existing QA processes and manpower.

·         There were many interesting discussions at ELC-E in Edinburgh and it was great to see everyone who stopped by the booth, participated at the BoF, attended OEDEM, helped with the Yocto Project Dev Day  and/or otherwise helped out with the project.

·         Richard Purdie attended the Automated Test Summit on behalf of the Yocto Project and represented the project’s tool and techniques there (e.g. ptest), it was productive and good to see more interest and collaboration around automated testing.

·         We’re starting to see patches being submitted for master but these will continue to be a secondary priority until 2.6 is released.
