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.

@mhdawson Given that the agenda is almost clear, could we add nodejs/node#28439 to the list? I just labelled it.

[Trott]

@apapirovski Are you able to make this week's meeting and be prepared to talk about nodejs/node#25461?

[mhdawson]

@ChALkeR added.

[apapirovski]

@Trott yep but I don’t have much to add beyond what was in the issue. There’s a fundamental breakage of the expectations that come with using async hooks when two different objects are used...

[mhdawson]

@apapirovski I think in part we need a response to nodejs/node#25461 (comment)

[Fishrock123]
