Key Status/Updates:

·        M3 rc1 was released, there were some issues found but nothing which couldn’t be addressed in M4 so we’re on track for release.

·        We’ve found and fixed a number of BB_SERVER_TIMEOUT issues to the point that it can now be used with oe-selftest which gives us a good confidence level in the functionality for release. If anyone does see issues with the bitbake server changes please report them as we’ve resolved most of the known issues (the remaining ones are with the xmlrpc server).

·        We are seeing intermittent qemu issues on the autobuilder and also intermittent failures particularly on qemuppc. We’re doing what we can to investigate these.

·        Huge thanks to Armin for finding out the issues we were seeing on the autobuilder for morty. We continue to see some issues with one of the newest autobuilder workers but believe that many of the other issues we were seeing have been resolved and hope that the 2.2.2 release can proceed soon and be given to QA.

·        Pyro has also seen many patches recently and is likely heading to a new point release once these have been tested and merged.
