Yocto support until April 2024? #153

Closed hurtadosanti closed 1 month ago

hurtadosanti commented 8 months ago

According to the official website Yocto support as tier 2 will be stopped end of April 2024. Is this correct?

I guess this is related to the current yocto kirkstone LTS release which also ends in April 2024. Hopefully there will be an upgrade to next yocto LTS release nanbield?!?

Yocto Kirkstone should be supported till April 2026 (https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Releases). IMO next supported release will/should be Scarthgap which will again be LTS with planned support till April 2028. Dunfell is going away this month (April 2024).

The dunfell (Yocto Project 4.0 LTS) release ends support in April 2024. The latest LTS is in the final process of being released scarthgap (Yocto Project 5.0 LTS) with support ending in April 2028. Hopefully a scarthgap branch for meta-iotedge will be created soon. I started working on it: https://github.com/moto-timo/meta-iotedge/tree/scarthgap

Whether the maintainers of meta-iotedge decide to go in a new direction (dropping meta-rust) is outside of my knowledge or control, but I am happy to share my architecture decisions and direction. I would also like to see a packagegroup-iotedge added, since we always need the same applications to make iotedge check work.

We will release Kirkstone recipes for 1.4 LTS and 1.5 LTS and continue to support it till April 2024. We are also planning Scarthgap release in the coming months.

Thanks now we can use it and see the long term goal of the project.
