## Minutes

### build: drop support for VS 2013 in v7 [#7484](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/7484) (@jasnell)

Consider v6 and v7 separately. All agree on moving to VS 2015 for v7. Only question is v6 prior to LTS. We need more info to make decision on v6.

If we stay with 2013 for v6 we’ll have to support it for the entire lifetime of v6 LTS. But it needs to still be possible to build native addons with 2013.

@jasnell - Our recommendation is to build native addons with VS 2015 unless it doesn’t work (e.g. in [node-sass#1283](https://github.com/sass/node-sass/issues/1283).

@orangemocha - No problem building `node.exe` with VS 2015 in v7. But dropping support for 2013 would break some modules (breaking change) due to ABI incompatibilities, so it might not be appropriate for v6. Need more time to assess impact.

### Node 6 fs.realpath behavior changes [#7175](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/7175)

@trevnorris - fix is working, test in development. Comment further in the PR.

### Replace section 5.1 with unambiguous JavaScript grammar. [#33](https://github.com/nodejs/node-eps/pull/33)

@jdalton added line stating explicitly that the .mjs proposal is still possible.

Vote taken in favor of merging this PR. Alexis officially abstained.

### AsyncWrap public API proposal [#18](https://github.com/nodejs/node-eps/pull/18)

See also [#7565](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/7565), which questions whether AsyncWrap should exist (from @bnoordhuis).

@jasnell - Error handling should be addressed.

@trott - A vote for the EP means “*if* we implement, this is what the JavaScript API will look like” and not necessarily “we intend to implement this.”

@trevnorris - Correct. Confirm the API, then more work is needed on implementation, e.g. to include info on promises.

@trevnorris - biggest missing chunk is public C++ API. Trouble is that it requires exposing some things which are not currently in public headers.

@trevnorris - Goal is to include this as experimental in v6 before LTS. But still waiting on additional hooks into promises from V8.

@Fishrock123 - AsyncWrap is best bet for CLS across async activities, replaces deprecated domains.

Vote: 7-8 ayes, 0 opposed, 0 abstentions.


## Q/A on public fora

None.
