If people are planning to work on specific things in 2.8 please let us
know so we can incorporate this into our plans. If you’re interested in
working on anything in the document, please also let us know or talk
with us in one of the planning meetings.Most items planned to be worked
upon should now be in the bugzilla with appropriately detailed entries
there.A summary of the 2.8 planning risk items was included in an email
to the yocto-ab list:
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto-ab/2019-May/002334.html
* The project is planning to adopt SPDX license headers in its source code where practical, OE-Core now has the markup on its scripts too.
 * Mailing lists are moving to groups.io instead of our current mailman
setup on 27th May. This shouldn’t impact users directly, more details
will be sent to the mailing lists in due course.
 * We have a new “newcomer” bug category which are bugs suited to
someone new to the project. These can be seen here: 
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Newcomer_Bugs
 * We’re about ready to switch over to gcc 9 by default with one more
issue needing to be resolved on mips.
 * We’re likely going to change the tuning of qemux86 to something more
modern
 * We’re likely to drop openssl 1.0 and irda from OE-Core imminently
