Key Status/Updates:

·        We’ve decided to take M3 to an rc2 build due to the shear amount of changes and issues found in rc1. The rc2 build is imminent but there have been a number of significant good patches hitting the mailing list and it makes sense to pull many of these in.

·        We have identified a number of issues which were slowing down oe-selftest and the autobuilder, Joshua’s help with these has been much appreciated and going forward, build times should be better and builds will be more stable. We have been able to use sstate to accelerate selftest now (which highlighted some other problems). We do continue to have performance/race issues (which as some gpg issue which resulted in a 30 hour selftest) but things are looking better.

·        Since we’re into the stabilization phase of 2.3, planning for 2.4 has begun and we’re entering 2.4 ideas and enhancements in to bugzilla. If you have suggestions for 2.4, please ensure they are in bugzilla.
