Notes

The agenda comes from issues labelled with tsc-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

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 TSC that's not worth putting on as a separate agenda item, this is a good place for that.

[mmarchini]

Can we remove nodejs/node#33864 and nodejs/admin#389 from the agenda if we don't have nothing to discuss about those this week, and re-add when we have things to discuss? We've been rolling those over for months now.

[mhdawson]

In terms of nodejs/admin#389 I've just emailed Tierney a list to remove so lets leave on so that we close, otherwise I don't think it will ever happen

In terms of nodejs/node#33864 I've heard that GitHub is going to have some new features soon to help with the transition so might be best to have Myles comment on removing in the meeting this week.

[ljharb]

Github landed those features last week; so it might be time to do the rename.

[targos]

Github landed those features last week; so it might be time to do the rename.

Did they communicate about it? I couldn't find anything on the GitHub blog.

[ljharb]

Nope, I’ve seen no announcement yet, but https://twitter.com/ljharb/status/1348718520113061888?s=21

[targos]

I have another meeting today at work that I cannot miss.

[jasnell]

Unfortunately I won't be able to make today due to company meeting conflicts. I'll try to get time to weigh in on the various items on the agenda later in the day. +1 to the various new contributor nominations

[tniessen]

I am still in another meeting and will join a little later.
