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.

@LiviaMedeiros Do you want to discuss nodejs/node#49531 at this meeting?

[LiviaMedeiros]

Not quite sure yet if I can but I'll try to.

For extra clarification, it's either nodejs/node#49531 (with nodejs/node#49629 as direct follow-up), or nodejs/node#49629.

I'm open for any questions regarding it before meeting as well, here or there.

[mhdawson]

@i'm not sure we have a chair for this meetng. I asked through email but forgot to follow up.

@mcollina I'm going to assume this is too late for you and unless there is a volunteer to chair by tomorrow morning I'll cancel the meeting,

@nodejs/tsc anybody able to chair?

[gireeshpunathil]

it will be too late (midnight) for me, sorry.

[GeoffreyBooth]

I can chair unless someone else wants to.

We might have a sizable private section, so some of these agenda items will likely need to get pushed off until next week. Can any of the folks who are unable to attend this week suggest issues of theirs that they would prefer to wait until they can attend?

[GeoffreyBooth]

This has no 👍 ‘s, should we cancel?

[anonrig]

I'm joining 👍

[benjamingr]

I'm also happy to join

[MoLow]

Il be there 5 minutes late
