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.

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.

There are a number of open PRs in the nodejs/node repo that are waiting for approvals from TSC members to land: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22review+wanted%22++label%3Asemver-major. Since the v16 semver cutoff is getting close, I think it would be worth mentioning it in the meeting.

[Trott]

@aduh95 Are there any in particularthat you'd single out as especially important to land for v16?

Are there any in particular that you'd single out as especially important to land for v16?

If I had to pick one, that'd be nodejs/node#37246 :) I think it could be really handy to have a node: prefix available so we can introduce new internal modules without risking breaking changes in the ecosystem.

[mhdawson]

Stream should start in about 5 minutes.

[mcollina]

Gosh, I got confused due to daylight savings and missed it :(.
