Key Status/Updates:
 * Today is the M1 feature freeze deadline. Patches are being processed with a view to merging. We believe all patchsets targeting M1 have been posted apart from tinfoil2 which is imminent and we’re planning to try and include that in M1.
 * We’re continuing to struggle to identify which patches are causing which failures which may delay M1 slightly as it is going to take time to figure this out and ensure builds are stable.
 * We’re considering the best way to handle containers and the current build appliance in the project going forwards. If anyone had input they wish to contribute on that subject, Brian has started a thread on the architecture mailing list.
