Notes

The agenda comes from issues labelled with ctc-agenda across all of the repositories in the nodejs org. Please label any additional issues that should be on the agenda before the meeting starts.

Joining the meeting

Uberconference; participants should have the link & numbers, contact me if you don't.

Public participation

We stream our conference call straight to YouTube so anyone can listen to it live, it should start playing at https://www.youtube.com/c/nodejs+foundation/live when we turn it on. There's usually a short cat-herding time at the start of the meeting and then occasionally we have some quick private business to attend to before we can start recording & streaming. So be patient and it should show up.

Many of us will be on IRC in #node-dev on Freenode if you'd like to interact, we have a Q/A session scheduled at the end of the meeting if you'd like us to discuss anything in particular. @nodejs/collaborators in particular if there's anything you need from the CTC that's not worth putting on as a separate agenda item, this is a good place for it.

[Trott]

Note that this meeting is at a time we haven't used before. Especially if you are in the Americas, carefully note the date too! It will be Tuesday night (or, if on Eastern time, "midnight Wednesday" which is effectively late Tuesday night)!

[italoacasas]

Is this something y'all want to discuss and make a decision? nodejs/node#10574

[bmeck]

I'd like nodejs/node#10135 discussed as to why just process and why non-writable. Many global references are essential for node to function: https://github.com/bmeck/node/blob/no-globals/lib/internal/globals.js

[rvagg]

@italoacasas I think that discussion might need to mature more on GitHub, there doesn't seem to be any movement since @mscdex' objection so I'm not seeing a need to escalate it yet.

@bmeck added to agenda as a discussion point, since you did flag it a few days ago.
