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.

[Trott]

• domain: error handler runs outside of its domain #26211

This was put on the agenda by @mcollina (who gave the PR an approval) because TSC needs "to discuss if a semver-major change on a deprecated API is something we would like to do."

If at all possible, I'd prefer that conversation happen in GitHub rather than in a meeting. So here we go:

While we should definitely consider the fact that an API deprecated when reviewing breaking changes to it, I think a case-by-case evaluation is fine. And I think in this case (improvement to domain), a breaking change is fine. (One could even argue that the fact that the API is deprecated makes the argument for breaking changes stronger, not weaker.)

[mcollina]

@Trott we talked about it last time. So I've removed it. It is still missing one other review from TSC to land.

[Trott]

• HackerOne's managed services #516

Should we invite @vdeturckheim as a guest for that issue? (For that matter, is it possible for the issue to be decided outside the meeting?)

[mcollina]

Should we invite @vdeturckheim as a guest for that issue? (For that matter, is it possible for the issue to be decided outside the meeting?)

I think it is almost decided via email.

[vdeturckheim]

I don't think I'd be able to say more than what has been discussed on issue indeed

[mhdawson]

Would like to remind people to self-nominate for the TSC Chair and Node.js CPC representative roles here: #689. It will help to understand how many or few people we have interested sooner than later.

[sam-github]

I will join this meeting as an oberver, but I need a password. Can someone irc (octetcloud) or email (vieuxtech@gmail.com) it to me? Or am I supposed to watch on youtube? Thanks1
