Node Foundation TSC Meeting 2015-07-01

Agenda

Extracted from tsc-agenda labelled issues and pull requests prior to meeting.

James: continued triaging of joyent/node issues, working on the LTS strawman proposal
Bert: not much on node, some minor libuv and installer stuff
Steven: Intl WG work
Chris: Not too much on node, working on docs tooling
Mikeal: working on a conferencing solution / replacement
Trevor: webassembly discussion, api wg
Brian: not much, triaging io.js issues and PRs
Jeremiah: reviewing PRs and issues, more work on _unrefActive()
Rod: busy week, worked on the build & release procedures. New jenkins job for all the types of release builds. v3.0.0 is now blocked on NAN. It’s a very big job. Node-gyp in next now works for rc’s and nightlies, and downloads a tarball of just the headers. First LTS WG meeting was also productive.

Steven Belanger tagged this issue: can we come up with a policy for dealing with PRs that block each other?
James clarified that this specific issue was about the url parsing changes, there were a couple of PRs that blocked each other
Chris: the PRs here are a “hot stove” situation where they all break url functionality so they are not trivial
Chris listed some of the blocking issues that are mainly held up because people are too busy so we probably need a way to communicate status to the community
James: would like to table this issue until it really becomes a problem
Bert: we could introduce some workflows - e.g. if you introduce an issue that is blocked on something else then you could mention that it’s blocked
Jeremiah: more relevant to communicate when things are in the pipeline and provide feedback for timelines so people are reasonably blocked but can be unblocked if there is no activity
Rod: doesn’t feel like something that needs a policy, perhaps it’s an open source 101 skill
Mikeal: the problem is that often people who are blocking each other don’t have context so need shepherding by someone with context.
Rod: doesn’t seem like there’s actionable items here, come back when there’s something more concrete to discuss
Bert: the workers PR has stalled because of Petka’s lack of time, anything that it’s blocking should just move forward, url changes are unlikely to get in as they are now because they are so breaking

Steven introduced the work towards getting this set up
Steven clarified the scope of the work (this is done in the README), it’s different to outreach and user assistance (i.e. the i18n translation stuff that io.js already has).
Jeremiah suggested we name the group after Intl so it’s clearer what it’s about.
James: It’s about Intl stuff in the code, unicode, REPL dying because of bad unicode
Mikeal: We’ve talked about starting a formal translation/language group that unifies all of the independent translation efforts. That’s probably why people are showing up for this group thinking it’s the translation group that we’ve talked about setting up. We should set up that separate group and maybe use Intl as the name for this separate group.
Bikeshedded naming for a little while.
Conclusion: rename as the Intl WG or similar for clarity. (renamed to Intl)
