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 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 CTC that's not worth putting on as a separate agenda item, this is a good place for it.

[Trott]

Additional issues labeled ctc-review worth the attention of @nodejs/ctc folks:

• http: docs deprecate ServerResponse.prototype.writeHeader()
• Changing Definition of "Locked" for Stability Index in API Docs
• tty: remove NODE_TTY_UNSAFE_ASYNC
• Symbol key props visible in inspection by default

[jasnell]

I will be unable to attend today as I'll be approximately 30k feet over Northern Montana at right about meeting time. For each of the issues labeled ctc-review, I've got no blocking objections. For the copyright issue, I am still waiting on an update from last weeks Board meeting so that we can know the current status. The PR restoring the original copyright headers should be ready to go (modulo a rebase).

[jasnell]

Btw, two more proposed deprecation PRs that should be discussed and reviewed:

• Deprecate _tls_legacy
• Deprecate legacy http.Agent.prototype.addRequest() signature
