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.

@nodejs/tsc I can't make it this week. Looking at the agenda I suggest we cancel as I don't see anything I think is new/is urgent on the agenda itself.

The key thing is to continue the discussion on is volunteers for stewarding security releases which we can do in the existing email thread.

[gireeshpunathil]

@mhdawson - I can chair, if we decide to have it this week. On the other hand, agree on cancellation, given the thin agenda.

[mhdawson]

@gireeshpunathil thanks! We'll see what other people think/say. Having the discussion on stewarding the security releases would be good. @mcollina if @gireeshpunathil chairs will you be able to make it and lead the discussion on that?

[BethGriggs]

I also have some private business to discuss, if enough folks are around.

[mcollina]

I can do that @mhdawson! I will join the meeting

[mhdawson]

@gireeshpunathil, @mcollina thanks!

[jasnell]

Unable to join today.

[gireeshpunathil]

Not streaming, as the public part of the meeting is not happening today.
