## Minutes

### meta: updated messaging regarding dates [#141](https://github.com/nodejs/LTS/pull/141)

All: No objections


### Clarify what happens with odd-numbered releases in April [#128](https://github.com/nodejs/LTS/pull/128)

- Myles: I’m not sure we need to declare a support statement at all, we
definitely don’t want to call it maintenance, that conflates it with LTS
maintenance mode, which is different.
- Sam: if we describe odd-numbered as stable then do we need maintenance?
- Myles: we shouldn’t call odd-numbered releases stable, they are current
because they don’t have a support process.
- Myles: We could say: “After the next Current release line comes out, there
will be no more scheduled releases. Further releases will be agreed on a
case-by-case basis.”
- Michael: how about: "An odd-numbered major release will cease to be actively
updated when the subsequent even-numbered major release is cut."
- All: agreed
- Myles: I think the bigger issue is that we are inconsistent about how stable
current is, and whether it’s recommended for more general use.
- Myles to raise CTC issue

### meta: charter the LTS Working Group [nodejs/CTC#122](https://github.com/nodejs/CTC/pull/122)

- Myles: I think the release team should include the LTS team, and a team of
people who do releases.
- Myles: Also the current Release WG should have meetings, even infrequent
ones, that would help us stay on top of our release process.
- Michael: I think it’s still good to have a `releasers` team under the
proposed Release WG that actually handles the release process, so that we
can have a wider Release team that aren’t required to all have release
access.
- Jeremiah: Yeah, there probably will be a lot of overlap between what the
current Release and LTS teams talk about.
- Jeremiah: If we do this, then the Release team might not all need to have the
responsibility to do releases.
- Myles: So maybe the rule should be that to add someone to the releasers team
requires signoff from the CTC.
- Michael: We need to make sure the other Release team members are on board.
- Michael to write up a first draft of the proposal, Myles can review before
the issue is created.
