Would you guys be able to test the video/audio export before you do the next recording, as it's de-synced pretty badly on the latest meeting.

[Fishrock123]

@bnb Not sure we can do much about that. It's a Google-Hangouts-streaming-to-youtube thing.

[bnb]

@Fishrock123 The quality seems pretty bad as well. Is Hangouts the best platform to do the meetings on?

Edit: Sorry, I'm way overstepping my bounds. I'll be quiet.

[therebelrobot]

@iojs/website reminder to verify that 19:00 UTC is ok, and make sure to tag issues you want to cover.

[snostorm]

I should be able to join. I have some traveling lined up later that day, so it'll be busy, but in theory I can come. Starting this week I'll have higher availability again. (Things are sure getting busy with all the i18n so I want to be more active in here than I've been able to be the last 2 weeks.)

[snostorm]

@bnb there's a ticker here or on the mainline branch around discussing alternatives to Google Hangouts. Being considered but no frontrunner, last I checked in.

[mikeal]

we should talk a bit about the process for merging translations since we should probably do it a little differently than other code and messaging changes.

[therebelrobot]

@mikeal updated agenda :)

[mikeal]

Azure added support for io.js :) http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-nodejs-iojs/

[therebelrobot]

@mikeal did you want that in #122? or did you want that added to the agenda?

[mikeal]

it will eventually have to make it through the TC but we should talk about this: https://www.behance.net/gallery/23269525/IOJS-logo-concept

we need to take a design/brand treatment/logo/color scheme at some point :)

[mikeal]

let's add #181 do the list.

[therebelrobot]

@iojs/website I just updated the minutes for tomorrow, please take a look and add anything to the original post if I missed anything.

[fhemberger]

Can we ask questions or comment during the hangout on IRC?

[therebelrobot]

Defnitely :) Most of us will have the #io.js channel up and monitoring it. I at least will try to, though I am facilitating, so I may need someone else in the WG to monitor and comment with what's said there.

[fhemberger]

Cool, then I'm trying to find the time to listen in tomorrow as well.

[Fishrock123]

i18n font support #166

This can be removed. It's only a matter of when we have time to do the dirty work.

[therebelrobot]

Updated agenda :)

[Fishrock123]

Merging translation PRs policy

Might as well just discuss #76

[therebelrobot]

@iojs/website This meeting is starting :)

[therebelrobot]

@snostorm are you able to join us today?

[therebelrobot]

@iojs/website As you get caught up with what we went over today, see about updating the Google Docs minutes as I am far from the most attentive with minutes writing.

[snostorm]

Hey guys, sorry I dropped the ball last week on this meeting. If I find some of you on IRC sometime soon I can share some stories about my (distracting) travel logistic nightmares of the past few weeks :)

My goal is to resume more activity in the repo again, starting today.

[mikeal]

@snostorm awesome!

[therebelrobot]

I'll be listening through this again tonight to write up a more comprehensive minutes, and get a PR in for it this week.

[therebelrobot]

@Starefossen Thanks for the assist on those minutes. Let me know once you're done and I'll go through your changes.

[Starefossen]

@therebelrobot all done :)

[therebelrobot]

Sweet. I'll get that in a PR today. Thanks again for your help with these. Your minutes seem to be quite a bit more thorough than my chicken scratches :P

[Starefossen]

I'm happy to help out 😄 I listen to most of the io.js WG meetings, so I don't mind writing a transcript while listening 📻
