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

[MylesBorins]

I'll be at google IO this week and most likely unable to attend

[Trott]

This time slot is nearly impossible for me. I'll be missing this one. The two buffer items on the agenda are mine or part mine. If attendees want to skip those items, I can update here after the meeting or something.

Also, probably a good time to consider @ChALkeR's meeting time adjustment suggestions. I'll open an issue for that now.

[Trott]

Moderation Team update: No moderation actions this week.

@nodejs/tsc @nodejs/community-committee @nodejs/moderation

[Fishrock123]

I probably won’t be able to make it.

[rvagg]

I'm in a good tz for this one today but I have to skip due to unforseen circumstances sorry
