Review of previous meeting

Discussion: LTS & v5 release planning #3000
Inspecting Node.js with Chrome DevTools #2546
Umbrella Program #2
renaming of “language groups” from iojs-* to nodejs-* #2525

WG: Considering a new HTTP WG #3214

Discussed the HTTP WG based on James’ comments @ https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/3234#issuecomment-146293038
Generally positive, only concerns are regarding decision making power—TSC may not want to hand that off as this is not quite like Streams (in that few people grok the code!) and there are philosophical questions to be resolved about HTTP that the TSC should be involved in.

lib,test: deprecate _linklist #3078

Userland modules exist that could be used instead
Ben suggested straight removal, Jeramiah raised the matter of process that we have committed to adding a warning before removal, so we could remove in v6 but probably shouldn’t in v5
No disagreement with moving forward for deprecation

Discussion: LTS & v5 release planning #3000

Recap of the latest LTS meeting LTS#43
Aim to have LTS / v4.2.0 out tomorrow, backup date of Monday if we miss that. LTS starts then for v4.x, v5.x has to wait until V8 4.6 to be stable mid to late October.

Compiling node v4.0.0 with OpenSSL 1.0.1 fails #2783

Shigeki, Ben: It would be quite hard to support 1.0.1 since we are using 1.0.2 APIs.
Discussion on the possible difficulty of using 1.0.2 on varied Linux distros
ubuntu wily (not released) seems to use 1.0.2 - work has been done to package. 1.0.2 is only in Wily - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/1.0.2d-0ubuntu1 - https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+question/263725 - “My guess is that we will see openssl 1.0.2 from Ubuntu 15.10 onwards (or eventually only starting with 16.04)”
Concern that allowing 1.0.1 would result in a substandard (insecure?) & untested binary.
Some discussion about the fact that we don’t test building with shared / static dependencies
feedback to issue: No appetite to do the work from the TSC, maybe someone could do it but we wouldn’t support.
