This is the best summary I could come up with:
The SNP leader is expected to stand down following the collapse of the Bute House Agreement - his party's power-sharing deal with the Scottish Greens - on Thursday.
Mr Yousaf had written to Scotland's opposition parties asking them to find "common ground" ahead of the votes.
The Scottish Greens were due to convene later to decide whether to accept Mr Yousaf's invitation to a meeting.
The Greens accused Mr Yousaf of "selling out future generations" over climate and had been due to hold a vote on whether to remain in power with the SNP in response.
Some Greens are also unhappy about NHS Scotland's decision to pause the prescription of puberty blockers following a landmark review of gender services in England by paediatrician Dr Hilary Cass.
Mr Yousaf has reportedly ruled out cutting a deal with Alba, a pro-independence party formed by former First Minister Alex Salmond after he broke from the SNP.
