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.

module: allow module.register from workers
Module customization hooks and worker threads

These seem like the same issue, right? What specific feedback do we want from the TSC @mcollina @GeoffreyBooth ?

It looks like you did a good job of identifying issues, working on a revert for the current major (and revert revert for right after) + have ideas on how to enable the use case while keeping the technical win of a single loader thread.

Anything other than "the TSC is happy you were all proactive on this and came to an agreement"?

[MoLow]

nodejs/tap2junit#56 can be removed from the agenda for now

[mcollina]

I'll do my best to join but I might not be able to.

[mhdawson]

@MoLow removed. Also removed the Abassador program issue as its been on the TSC agenda long enough as an FYI.

[jasnell]

This hits right in the middle of conflicting call. I'll weigh in on various issues in-thread where appropriate

[GeoffreyBooth]

These seem like the same issue, right? What specific feedback do we want from the TSC @mcollina @GeoffreyBooth ?

They’re the same issue. I think the only question for the TSC is if we’re okay with shipping the 22.1.0 behavior for this as 22.3.0, when we know it’s going to change yet again; though I don’t think we have any other choice at this point unless we want to delay the 22.3.0 release. So I guess at this point it’s more of an FYI.
