Key Status/Updates:

*	YP 2.7.2 is under review by the TSC and likely to be released.
*	Tests were made on making reproducibility the default for poky.
There were several issues found for which bugs were filed:

*	A double free issue in opkg (Alejandro looking into, thanks)
*	devtool failures (Paul sent a fix, thanks)
*	recipetool failures (Richard sent a fix)

*	Tests were made on making the hashserver default for poky. There
were also several issues found and RP is trying to understand and work
through those. At least one critical issue has been identified and due to be
tested.
*	The SWAT team no longer has enough people on it to make it
sustainable and has therefore been disbanded. This means build owners need
to triage their own build failures. Richard will be responsible for failures
in the scheduled master builds.
*	Intermittent build failures continue to hamper builds, particularly
combined with the above issues and as few people are available to attempt to
debug and resolve them.
*	The TSC is working on LTS plans, productive discussions have been
had and a new policy on handling this and stable releases should be
available in the next couple of weeks.
*	We are continuing to collect ideas for YP 3.1 in this document:
