Notes

The agenda now comes from issues labelled with tsc-agenda in all 3 repositories listed above. Please label any additional issues that should be on the agenda before the meeting starts. I'm using a tool to fetch the list so it's not a big deal to collate.

Joining the meeting

Uberconference; participants should have the link & numbers, contact me if you don't.

@rvagg: Additional agenda items:

1. Quick update from Rod/Ben^h^h^hBert on TSC Representation on the Board
2. Node.js TC-39 participation, how should we engage?
3. Any additional input on LTS plan?

[rvagg]

I was going to back out now unfortunately, kids have kept me up (it's 2am) and I'm not going to get enough sleep and I've not been well anyway so best if I opt out!

I did want to briefly mention progress on 3.0 which I'd really like to get out asap so we can give add-on authors a head start before we dump the converged release on everyone with epic breakage (the PR of that is going to be messy). I've done conversions of leveldown, canvas and bignum and shaken out some bugs and got my head around the NAN changes. The main needs now are getting docs completed for NAN, ideally including a guide for converting from pre-v2.

Also the build WG has a work plan for a converged release @ nodejs/build#135 with the goal of getting releases out by late August. It might be a stretch but this is fairly important for the LTS plan.

If @jasnell is on the call it'd be good to have more discussion about how LTS fits with the other release plan discussion. We need some synergy there.

[mikeal]

Also, the foundation budgetting process has begun so this would be a good
time to start talking about anything the TSC needs that could require
budget.

Sending my apologies today.

[bnoordhuis]

I already mentioned it on the calendar invite but I won't be able to attend this week and next week.

Quick update from Rod/Ben on TSC Representation on the Board

Wrong Dutch guy, you want @piscisaureus. :-)

If possible, it's time I bring my need for employment (/related) to the board. We can discuss a bit of this before the actual meeting, maybe?

[misterdjules]

I also won't be able to attend.

Are TSC Meetings still being published to Youtube? Overviews are nice in that they are succinct, but Its nice to review the full conversations. Perhaps the video has not be published yet...?

[Fishrock123]

@techjeffharris they no longer are since we outgrew the max people limit on google hangouts on air. They are now posted to soundcloud. (I think it's up-to-date.) https://soundcloud.com/iojs

[techjeffharris]

They are now posted to soundcloud.

👍 The video is mostly irrelevant anyway.

(I think it's up-to-date.)

It appears so.

Thank you! I'll link to your comment in the issue I created then close it.

[techjeffharris]

(I think it's up-to-date.)

It appears so.

I take that back. None have been uploaded since May.

Ping @mikeal ^

[jasnell]

Hmm... not good. Ping @rvagg too.

[rvagg]

yep, just got the creds from Mikeal, I'm planning on putting links in to the minutes too so they don't get totally detached

[mikeal]

PS. I'm working on automating this in "the new system" :)

[techjeffharris]

Thanks for jumping on this so quickly especially considering how busy you all are already! :)
