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.

[rvagg]

Note that we're inviting @thealphanerd to CTC meetings now, primarily because of his vital role in managing v4 LTS and our desire to ensure that he's well connected with what's going on. This is not a CTC nomination, just a presence for connectivity purposes.

@addaleax is also being invited as the first step in a process of nomination to the CTC, see #7607 for that.

Also, see nodejs/CTC#10 for some discussion about how to engage @nodejs/collaborators more in these meetings without making them too difficult to manage. Feedback is welcome there!

[shigeki]

I can't make it this week. Sorry.

[indutny]

I may not be able to get to the computer by this time, sorry!

[ChALkeR]

I will probably miss the meeting today, I'm awake for a bit too long by this time already today, had a flight early in the morning =).
Sorry for that.

[srl295]

I'll miss the first ½ but will try to call in for the second ½

[Trott]

Standup section of the doc is ready for anyone that wants to get an early start.

[indutny]

I may be able to get to the call after all.

[chrisdickinson]

Sending my apologies.

[MylesBorins]

It was mentioned in this morning's LTS meeting that we should discuss the v4.5.0
