Key Status/Updates:
 * We decided to release M2 with known issues. We have a good handle on some of them, there are others which are unknown but there is no one specific cause of the bugs. 
 * We will run another full QA pass before M3 to try and make sure we are dealing with the known bugs.
 * Merging of patches continues to be slow as it is proving hard to work out which patches are causing which breakage. The test matrix continues to increase with people being upset if their personal favourite set of options breaks yet we can’t expect to test and catch every regression. We’re not sure what to do about this, the scope of the testing is greater than it ever has been but it does seem to be slowing things down.
 * A patch for performance issues with pseudo when using xattrs have was merged
 * 2.1.1 is currently in QA and is expected to be completed early next week, this update contains numerous fixes for for a variety of areas including CVEs, GCC 6.x on Host OS and updated SRC_URIs
