1) Grumpy Guppy patch release 7.0.2 was made last week. https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/release-notes#grumpy_guppy_702. Release 7.0.3 is planned for the end of June. The schedule was updated on the wiki page with updated plans for Guppy patch releases and the Happy Halibut release candidates. https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/schedule

2) Save the date for the next AGL All-Member Meeting. It will be held October 22-23, 2019 in Monte Carlo. This is an exciting location with a rich car racing history. Sponsorships are now available and we will open the CFP soon. There will also be F2F SAT an Expert Group meetings held on October 24. https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/agl-amm-eu-2019/

3) Long-term support for the AGL UCB. We are documenting requirements that will be reviewed at this week’s SAT meeting. https://confluence.automotivelinux.org/x/X4CP

4) The SAT is also having a discussion about how we improve the AGL UCB readiness of AGL. This discussion will continue during this week’s SAT call. See confluence at https://confluence.automotivelinux.org/x/bICP

5) The hardware specification being written by the Reference Hardware System Architecture EG was reviewed during the meeting in Spain. This should lead to a 2-DIN hardware prototype that can be purchased by AGL Members. The current version of the spec can be found here. https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/_media/eg-rhsa/agl_referencehardwarespec_v0.2.2.pdf The next step is take this document and create an RFQ that can be responded to by possible hardware designers. I am working to get the first draft of the RFQ ready for this week’s SAT call (June 6).

6) The agenda for Automotive Linux Summit was posted. ALS will be held July 17 – 19 in Tokyo. https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/automotive-linux-summit-2019/program/schedule/

7) When you make your travel plans to attend Automotive Linux Summit, remember that we will hold a Face-to-Face SAT and Expert Group meeting on July 16 the day before ALS begins. Sign up at https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/jul2019-f2f
