CPC and Board Meeting Updates

*Extracted from tsc-agenda labeled issues and pull requests from the nodejs org prior to the meeting.

nodejs/node

  • Grant triagers the ability to re-run a failed CI #42125

    • Gireesh added, there ended up being a number of issues in the discussion
    • Gireesh, first question should triaggers be able to run the CI
      • Robert, what are the security implications of that
      • Triagers only have access to labels.
      • Myles, limited to only test infrastructure
      • Michael, we nominate,approve triagers so we know them, which should limit risk
      • Nobody arguing that we don’t give access
    • Second question is about re-run CI
      • Michael, what about expectation to check for open issues before re-running
      • Robert, could backfire by creating spam type issues
      • Nobody voice concerns with allowing triagers to re-run CIs
    • Robert
      • Block based on security audit
      • Myles, we should not block
    • No objections if somebody wants to add label to resume CI

  • Proposal: Adding a built-in test runner #40954

    • Colin
      • Should we ship a built in test runner, Deno does, believe it makes sense
      • Even if you try to avoid npm dependencies you still have to install a test runner
      • Wanted to get more TSC feedback before spending more time on it
    • Michael what kind of size would it add to the shipped binaries
      • Colin, tap is 30MB, expect what we would provide would be far, far less and 1MB
    • Myles what about reporters, there are so many of those, what would we do, pick one or support many
      • Colin consensus seems to be just generate tap
    • Myles what about code coverage
      • Colin has been discussed, would likely want to incorporate C8.
      • Michael there is/was an open issue by Issac
    • Michael, possible to make stripped down version of tap
      • Colin, maybe but not volunteering to do that
    • Tobias
      • Would the test runner have a tap-like assertion interface (t.equal etc) or reuse node's assert?
    • If no other comments, will work on assumption brought to TSC, will work on PR.

  • Add a resume-ci label to issues? #40817

    • Already discussed in issue related to triagers
    • Richard it will be a lot more complicated to implement.

  • Rename default branch from "master" to "main" #33864

nodejs/email

  • Email cleanup tracking #182
    • Bunch of things that need to happen
    • On TSC agenda as FYI, removing label

nodejs/TSC

  • nominating aduh95 as a Moderation Team member #1182

    • 72 hours nobody objected, approved. Thank you very much.

  • Publishing specs for Buffer and EventEmitter #1176

    • Not time sensitive will wait for a time James can make it

  • [meta] settle on a voting solution #1165

    • discussed before, agreed we should go for it.

nodejs/admin

  • Bot user for nodejs/corepack #660

    • Removed, from TSC agenda, no objections to bot user.

  • blocklist import/export #659

    • discussed last time, no concern about mirroring, taking off of TSC agenda.

Strategic Initiatives

  • V8 - V8 9.9 and later are blocked on windows compiler issue, issue open in the V8 issue tracker. Would be great if anybody with Windows knowledge could help out

  • Next-10

  • Core promises - no update this week

    • Suitable types - next step PR in changes to doc style/api guides
    • Single binary exe's discussed in mini-summit but no champion to push forward, should probably still land something so we capture what we agreed would be best way forward
    • Modern http
      • undici landed/being tweaked
    • Documentation
      • PR goal to have inline example for all methods/functions - nodejs/node#42274
      • Planning to work on documenting metadata
    • Planning for next virtual summit on WASM and Security, 7th of April
    • Planning for sessions at OpenJS World (common, review modern http progress, baseline review, ESM and Observability as technical deep dives)
