Key Status/Updates:

*         YP 2.6.1 is in QA and 79% complete. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.6_QA_Status

*         We merged the perl changes and version upgrade. This exposed some race issues but we're hoping those have now been resolved. Thanks AlexK! This may cause fallout for perl module recipes in other layers.

*         There is a proposed patchset to add GL passthrough support for qemu, feedback on the proposals is welcome. There are build time performance implications, particularly due to the use of gtk3+-native.

*         There is a -dev kernel recipe for the Linux 5.0 kernel, thanks Bruce.

*         M2 cutoff is next week!
