Progress:
* UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
+ code review, pullreq
+ fixed the "breaks a gitlab CI run" issue with the 'merge docs into
a single sphinx manual' patch
* QEMU-364 [QEMU support for ARMv8.1-M extensions]
+ Progress with the SSE-300 model:
- finished model of new timer device
- updated iotkit-sysctl register block with SSE-300 specific behaviour
- implemented simple dummy model of new CPU<N>_PWRCTRL register block
- made sse-300 code more data-driven so it can handle sse-300 putting
some of the devices at different places
thanks

Progress (2 day week this week):
* UM-2 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
+ Unsurprisingly, pretty much just catching up with email, pull requests,
code review, bug reports, respins of patchsets...
* QEMU-364 [QEMU support for ARMv8.1-M extensions]
+ The final parts of base v8.1M and Cortex-M55 support are now in master.
thanks
