CPC and Board Meeting Updates

*Extracted from tsc-agenda labeled issues and pull requests from the nodejs org prior to the meeting.

  • Board meeting tomorrow but nothing on my list which are Node.js related
  • No CPC updates this week.

nodejs/node

  • module: unflag import assertions #39921

    • Geoffrey gave us a good intro the discussion
    • Discussion is around assertionless/assertion versions of import json
    • Antoine, ok with landing any form of JSON modules, the sooner the better
    • Chalker, +1 on landing with assertions (ie both or just the assertions form)
    • Geoffrey splitting up so that we ship the assertionless later would make sense as that would help us work through any issues with loaders
  • meta: move one or more collaborators to emeritus #40115

    • automated job created issue to move people from active -> emeritus based on (as author, reviewer, or committer) in the last 5000 commits (spanning nearly the last 20 months).
    • manual review seems to confirm they are no longer active
    • low risk as easy to move people back
    • Comfortable updating our governance
    • Michael, should we update the governance so that we don’t need a vote
    • Gireesh good to ping, reach out to members. Send email with link to issue.
  • Rename default branch from "master" to "main" #33864

    • Slowly making progress
  • Migration of core modules to primordials #30697

    • Gireesh, ran a couple of meetings with interested parties
      • First one came out with 5 proposals
      • Second consolidated down to 3 proposals
        • Should have them robustness in core
        • Should have them to support security in terms of resolution
        • Should not include them readability/contributors ability to contribute is degraded
      • Next steps
        • At future TSC members have proponent of each attend/pitch the option (see nodejs/node#30697 (comment) for some more details)
        • Another meeting is not likely to be productive, group does not believe that it would lead to consensus
        • Agreement we can have subset of modules under primordials, based on tradeoffs
    • Michael what would we vote on
      • Gireesh decide yes/no, after that then decide on boundary
    • Rich, will there be people that would say no primordials if they are everywhere, but maybe yes if they are restricted.
    • Gireesh to talk to 3 proponents and look to schedule them to present in the Oct 7 meeting

nodejs/TSC

  • To be or not to be in core #1041
    • defer to next time
