The agenda comes from issues labelled with tsc-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.

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

[Trott]

Add @tniessen to guest participants?

Add @cclauss for the Python update? (Or is every week more often than is necessary? We have 135 days until Python 2 goes EOL, so I suspect each meeting is not too often if it's not a problem for @cclauss, especially considering that we cancel a lot of meetings.)

Adding nodejs/node#24347 to the agenda at the request of @ronag. Attention: @apapirovski

[bnoordhuis]

I could join if the python3 issue is to be discussed and @cclaus can't make it; full-icu too. For once, the time works for me.
