Notes

The agenda comes from issues labelled with ctc-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.

Joining the meeting

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

Public participation

We will attempt to stream our Uberconference call straight to YouTube so anyone can listen to it live. If it works, then it should start playing at https://www.youtube.com/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 CTC that's not worth putting on as a separate agenda item, this is a good place for it.

[evanlucas]

Perhaps we can add #6421 to the agenda?

[indutny]

Sorry, won't be able to join you this time.

[orangemocha]

I won't be able to attend today.

[bmeck]

I'll be bringing modules back for more talk.

[jasnell]

@bmeck ... we should make that a regular segment... like the top ten from letterman. ;-)

[chrisdickinson]

Apologies — I won't be able to attend this week or next (due to a vacation next week and a somewhat-more-involved-than-expected deploy this week!)

[rvagg]

If we have @nodejs/collaborators || @nodejs/ctc members who want to dig deeper into the .mjs vs package.json proposals for ES Modules, please let @bmeck know as he's got some conf calls with folks about this that you could join. At the moment there isn't much interest on the CTC side but it'd be good to get additional Node heads in this discussion rather than just leaving it on @bmeck's shoulders.

[Fishrock123]

I suppose I'll try to join in on those.
