* Same pattern of dates as before.
* Imminent issue for Morocco users (tzdata2020a) - [#576](https://github.com/nodejs/Release/issues/576)
* Can we close this as the issue is no longer imminent?
* Manual backports with compatibility patches [#468](https://github.com/nodejs/Release/issues/468)
* Are we still considering this approach? Should we close?
* Myles added branch protection on staging branches.
* Should we have a Node.js releasers email alias?
* Useful when needing to coordinate security releases.
* (Action) Open an issue to indicate who would like to be on the alias.
