Invited: @bnoordhuis (TC), @piscisaureus (TC), @indutny (TC), @isaacs (TC), @trevnorris (TC), @chrisdickinson (TC, streams), @mikeal (website), @rvagg (TC), @domenic (observer), @Fishrock123 (observer)

Agenda so far: lifted from issues marked with _tc-agenda_, please label, or ask to have issues labelled if they need to be elevated to TC discussion.

• #1130 Nominating Jeremiah Senkpiel @Fishrock123 to the TC
• #1393 Ready to upgrade to V8 4.2?
• #1413 Combined node.js/io.js TC/Core Call
• #1416 Diffing io.js and the Node.js Foundation
• #1481 Nominating @mikeal to the TC
• #1500 Nominating Brian White @mscdex to the TC
• #1501 Nominating Shigeki Ohtsu @shigeki to the TC

The first few of these are duplicates from the last meeting but I think they might still be relevant.

Note: There will be time at the end of the meeting for interactive QA with people in the #io.js channel on Freenode.

[Fishrock123]

Can we do the TC nominations first, to get them out of the way?

[mikeal]

Just as a point of process, I don't think we've got 24 hours on the latest nominations for @mscdex and @shigeki so, if there are objections, we'll need to a defer a vote until the next meeting.

[chrisdickinson]

If it's possible I'd like to update everyone on the results of the v1.8.0 release, and what I'd like to do for the upcoming v2.0.0 release.

[Fishrock123]

@chrisdickinson Please do. I suspect the "Ready to upgrade to V8 4.2?" will be about that in part.

[rvagg]

Sorry, I didn't mean for them to be voted on at this meeting, I just included them to explain why they are there. The suggestion was that they would join the TC meetings for a few weeks like @Fishrock123 did and then we vote at a later meeting.

[Fishrock123]

@shigeki by the way, how did you find understanding the meeting? Was our english we clear enough?

[shigeki]

@Fishrock123 Thanks for taking care of me. Everyone speaks very clear. But sometime I could not follow conversations because of my lack of understanding of agenda. It was very helpful for me that Rod takes notes simultaneously during the meeting. I'm sure I can catch up by reading minutes later.

[Fishrock123]

@shigeki Honestly I also had some trouble following today too, the agenda was a little back-and-forth. No worries. :)

[rvagg]

@Fishrock123 how can we improve on the back-and-forth that you're seeing?

[Fishrock123]

how can we improve on the back-and-forth that you're seeing?

Was mostly just this meeting, but we jumped ahead or something at some point after the TC nominations and I got lost in the schedule when trying to take notes. Was generally like "wait where are we at?" a couple times.

[rvagg]

"wait where are we at?"

Whenever I'm in a meeting and am feeling like that then I like to call for some clarification or a back-up to figure it out. Anyone in these meetings should feel free to ask for a temporary halt if anything's unclear so we can make sure we proceed with everyone on the same page. This goes particularly for anyone trying to take notes!
