Key Status/Updates:

*        YP 2.1 M4.rc2 is in QA and it is hoped this will become the final 2.1 release.

*        We have found a number of issues since but nothing with enough impact to mean we'd rebuild as yet.

*        WDD did continue to fall slightly yet again which is a nice change!

*        2.2 planning continues. Current high level plans include:

o   Finishing the integration work of patchwork, patchtest, SWAT team, error reporting system and related process improvements

o   "multi-configuration" builds, potentially leading to distributed builds,

o   Moving to python 3.x, at least for Bitbake

o   Encourage adoption of new tools (toaster, eSDK, CROPS)

*        If you have enhancements you'd like to see in 2.2, please do make sure the bugzilla has entries for them.

*        We need to choose a maintainer for 2.1 (krogoth), if interested please talk to Richard although we do have some volunteers already.
