The agenda comes from issues labelled with tsc-agenda across all of the repositories in the nodejs org. Please label any additional issues that should be on the agenda before the meeting starts.

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.

Many of us will be on IRC in #node-dev on Freenode if you'd like to interact, we have a Q/A session scheduled at the end of the meeting if you'd like us to discuss anything in particular. @nodejs/collaborators in particular if there's anything you need from the TSC that's not worth putting on as a separate agenda item, this is a good place for that.

[jasnell]

I will not be able to make the call again today due to a standing calendar conflict.

Re: Rename default branch from "master" to "main" or something similar #33864

Looking forward to seeing this changed as soon as practically feasible.

Migration of core modules to primordials #30697

There's been a number of performance regressions identified due to this. I'd like to see the work continue but think we need to be more aggressive about benchmarking as we go.

Moderation Team Certification #1014

If there's a decision or vote to be made here, I'm +1 on re-certifying the whole moderation team. They've been doing a fantastic job.

Revist the meeting times #1004

I've been doing my best to figure out a time to suggest that may work. My Thursdays are my busiest meeting days and availability is often inconsistent.

Hope y'all are doing well.

[mcollina]

I'm so sorry I had a meeting that is going over :(.
