Key Status/Updates:

·        YP 2.3.1 (pyro) was released.

·        The bitbake server rework has merged and bitbake now always starts a server as a background process and reconnects to it. The server can optionally stay in memory. We have reports of timeout issues where bitbake appears to be attempting to connect to a server in the midst of shutting down. We’ve identified one issue with prserv causing issues and patches have been posted to address this. There may be other issues causing slow server shutdown and we need to identify these, any help in doing that is appreciated.

·        We have opted to get the server rework into M2 which means M2 is running slightly behind schedule. We are seeing several oe-selftest failures which we need to resolve before we can build M2. Hopefully these will be resolved so we can get a build into QA early this week.
