The maintainers meeting is a meeting for the developer team to coordinate on pressing issues and to plan the development of the PX4 Autopilot project, the community is welcome to join and listen, but won’t be able to speak unless specific access is granted ahead of time.

v1.14 Release
CI improvements?
Meeting Notes
v1.14 Release
All the pending issue/PRs were resolved. Time for a RC?
Daniel is adding cubepilot and cubeorangeplust to Jenkins S3 upload script. Then, we can cut the RC.
TODO: Combining the NuttX build & Metadata upload into a single script will speed things up. E.g. Since now we are building the target separately for each run, which 2x-es the run time.
Having a user adding a board target shouldn’t have to touch CI for the metadata/binary to get built.
TODO: The NuttX build is not getting triggered for branches except main. The stable, beta, and release/* will be added to include them for triggering the actions.
MAVLink submodule update
In Simulation the compatability is broken. So we need to update the submodule in Simulation, then in PX4.
Some documentation on reducing flash?
Having some hints on what can work to reduce flash can be helpful, like Blotty docs.
There’s nothing specific that works in general, so won’t be feasible to document so much.
Re embedded debug tools, is there anyone who has actually used this who can provide a page or section under Debugging Topics | PX4 User Guide
I can see it might be useful, but I don’t know enough about the state before/after to understand why this is useful compared to what we already have … and the cases where you wouldn’t care. I don’t know what hardware you need for it over and above what we already have.
EDIT. Note, the author is going to provide first shot at docs in our library. Hurray.
