Key Status/Updates:

  *   YP 1.9 M2 rc2 is out of QA and will be released shortly.  The full test report can be accessed here<https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW28_-_2015-07-10_-_Full_Pass_1.9_M1.rc2>.  The Release criteria are located here<https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Project_v1.9_Status#Milestone_1_-_Target_July_10.2C_2015>.
  *   Autobuilder intermittent failure issues are being tracked via a number of bugs, all tracked by bug 7983<https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7983>.
  *   WDD has seen large increases (likely due to the significant number of autobuilder issues being seen)
  *   Two key performance regressions with the new data store were identified and fixed
  *   The bitbake logging changes introduced a performance regression due to issues with fifos in pseudo (now resolved in 1.6.7)
  *   Significant linux-yocto kernel changes (separate meta repository) are being worked on and due to merge soon
  *   We will likely make the expansion parameter to getVar mandatory soon as discussed (default is False currently)
  *   Several M2 features may be delayed due to knock on effect of delayed M1
