Describe the session

Node.js the next 10 years - kickoff. The TSC has been discussing how to do a summit on what we should focus on to repeat the success of the 10 years of Node.js (see nodejs/TSC#797 (comment) for proposed agenda). Originally we were thinking of in person but given the current situation we discussed virtual in nodejs/TSC#836 but there are many challenges.

What we have agreed is that we'd like to do a kickoff as part of the OpenJS World Collaborator summit. Ideally covering:

• Retrospective (1-2 hours?)

  • What were the key things that made Node.js successful in the last 10 years
  • What were the key values that supported that success
  • What worked in the management of the project, what did not

• Looking Forward

  • Review of Key technologies/trends that will influence what we should do in Node.js and
    agree on prioritized list of those we should do further deep dives on.

I'll miss this session, unfortunately :/

Will there be recordings for folks to watch later?

[mhdawson]

I think it uses zoom so we should be able to record.
