Key Status/Updates:

·         We’re now well into M3 feature freeze so new feature patches, particularly for unplanned changes will be deferred until 2.7.

·         M3 has still not been built yet however we have:

o    upgraded to openssl 1.1 final

o    merged the allarch multilib changes we were waiting for.

o    resolved the xserver upgrade issues and merged the fixes/upgrades

o    the python3 openssl issues were resolved, thanks Anuj!

·         The main remaining question is what, if anything to do with openssh for 2.6. Upstream have now reluctantly merged openssl 1.1 support. Any new release date containing that work is unknown but its tempting to upgrade to the latest from revision control and then take the new released version into 2.6 when it does happen., thereby unifying openssl support in OE-Core.

·         There is a bug that has been identified in relocating gnupg-native causing oe-selftest failures.

·         An issue with the buildbot autobuilder UI plugin code was debugged and a fix sent and accepted upstream.

·         YP 2.6 M3 Build Target is Aug. 27, 2018
