Current Dev Position: YP 2.1 M2
Next Deadline: YP 2.1 M2 Cutoff (Feature Freeze) date is January 25, 2016 noon GMT

SWAT team rotation: Randy -> Benjamin
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Yocto_Build_Failure_Swat_Team

Key Status/Updates:

  *   Yocto Project 2.0.1 was successfully built and is due out of QA soon, likely to release next week.
  *   Yocto Project 2.1 M2 cutoff is on Monday, please ensure any patches expected to be in M2 are sent to the mailing list for review before then.
  *   We are looking pretty up to date with patch review/processing although there is a large queue in -next pending final checks but which should merge soon.
  *   We are keeping an eye on CVEs and ensuring they get merged to various branches as we can find the bandwidth but we're low on manpower for this.
  *   I'd like to highlight that there are increasing numbers of stack overflow questions about the project and help in providing good answers on there would be appreciated.
  *   WDD and bug trend continue to rise to new heights. We are simply receiving more bugs than we have resources to fix/close.

Key YP 2.1 Dates:
YP 2.1 M2 Cutoff (Feature Freeze) date is January 25, 2016 noon GMT
YP 2.1 M2 Target release date is February 12, 2016
YP 2.1 M3 Cutoff (Feature Freeze) date is February 29, 2016 noon GMT

We've been raising this issue the last few OpenEmbedded developer
meetings. There are a few people trying to answer questions there as we
have time. It takes time to build up enough reputation to be useful
there. Please people try and help out with this work. You should be able
to search on OpenEmbedded, Yocto, and Poky and get most of the questions.

What CVEs need merging? New ones or ones submitted for stable branches?
