Key Status/Updates:

·        YP 2.3.2 (pyro) is in progress and in QA about 57% complete.  See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.3_QA_Status

·        YP 2.2.2 (morty) has been through QA but there were a number of issues raised. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WW37_-_2017-09-13_-_Full_Point_Release_Test_Cycle_2.2.2_rc2

·        For 2.2.2, we are currently working on understanding the impact of one remaining issue in order to decide if it can be released, the issue concerns the presence of ptest packages in test images. There were a number of other issues raised or open, many of the open issues were resolved in 2.2.2 and have been closed, some other issues were due to confusion of testing morty compared with master (which has a different eSDK configuration).

·        The rocko branches for 2.4 and the bitbake 1.36 branches have been created in preparation for the 2.4 release rc builds which are due soon.

·        The branch name for the ‘2.5’ release is “sumo” (https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases has been updated).

·        For 2.4 we continue to have a number of concerning issues, particularly in pseudo but on other areas too. Patches are being worked upon, the patch backlog should be mostly under control at this point. Technically we are due the first 2.4 rc build today, reality is we need to fix several more issues before we do that. We have had some image size issues we’re struggling to pin down to a specific patch and that is holding up a number of patches whilst we bisect where the issues are.
