Key Status/Updates:

·         2.3.3 and 2.4.1 were released. These releases do not contain spectre/meltdown patches/fixes as those are still being worked on and haven’t merged yet.

·         We are mostly up to date with patch queues although there are some bigger series which are still being tested/reviewed and are still pending

·         Due to testing problems with 2.5 M1 rc3, it is still undergoing QA testing and is 90% complete. We are continuing to have some QA transition/infrastructure issues. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.5_QA_Status.

·         A separate update on the spectre/meltdown status and the project has been sent out to the oe-core mailing list.


Planned upcoming dot releases:

YP 2.4.2 (Rocko) will be built when a stable version of the spectre/meltdown patches has been proven ready.

YP 2.3.4 (Pyro) will be built when a stable version of the spectre/meltdown patches has been proven ready.

YP 2.2.3 (Morty) rc1 is in QA, see https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/2.2_QA_Status.  We are considering holding this release candidate and building another when a stable version of the spectre/meltdown patches has been proven ready.


Key YP 2.5 Dates are:

YP 2.5 M1 rc3 is in QA, see above link.
