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

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

[MylesBorins]

Can we please add #371 to the agenda

Specifically we need to discuss the IANA/IESG asking us to change from vendor to standards track for any registration. This has resulted in a request to specify / verify a Standards Organization to use as a contact.

Brad was curious if we want to move the contact to the foundation instead of the TSC

[fhinkel]

@dshaw Are you joining us for this? Asking because #383 is on the agenda.

[MylesBorins]

we should again drop #383 from agenda, as the meeting hasn't happened

That being said we should pick a date, I'm about to head to asia for two weeks, and sounds like matteo is out for a bit as well. We may need to make a new collection of dates

@jasnell I'm more than happy to pick this up if you don't have time

[evanlucas]

I may be a few minutes behind depending on traffic

[jasnell]

@MylesBorins ... be me guest on picking that up. My available time over the next couple of weeks has all but evaporated.

[Fishrock123]

Also discussing #371

[dshaw]

@fhinkel Waiting for the green light to engage in whatever forum the TSC chooses. Thanks for the callout.
