Key Status/Updates:

  *   Several key uninative issues were identified and fixed which should mean uninative is much more reliable than previously as there were some rare but problematic corner cases which are now fixed.
  *   Other potentially 2.5 blocking changes such as timezone issues were fixed.
  *   We have documented sstate mirror setup for poky as opt-in, not by default and will monitor the usage of this to see how sustainable it is.
  *   Assuming the current test build succeeds, 2.5 rc1 will be built today.
  *   An email about 2.6 planning was sent out and people are invited to the next monthly technical call (https://www.yoctoproject.org/monthly-technical-call/). The email details the planning process we will be following along with some of the possible ideas for 2.6. The email is: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2018-April/150040.html
  *   We are now tracking patch status in the tracking metrics below. The percentage of patches with Upstream-Status should stay at 100% now with our monitoring. Over time we want to reduce the percentage in the “Pending” state and the overall number of patches.


Planned upcoming dot releases:

YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built after 2.5

YP 2.2.4 (Morty) will be built after 2.5

YP 2.4.3 (Rocko) is planned for post YP 2.5

YP 2.5 M4 cut off of 4/2/18

YP 2.5 M4 release of 4/27/18
