@juanarbol do you still plan to prepare a release for tomorrow? No worries if you can't, but I'd like to know so I take time to do it.

@targos do you still have time to pick it up (maybe delayed until Weds/Thurs)? I reached out to @juanarbol by other means and it seems he is unavailable this week.

I'm still preparing v18.x - aiming for Thursday (8/11) release date.

I'm still preparing v18.x - aiming for Thursday (8/11) release date.

Preparing v18.x is still ongoing - right now, it seems I am blocked by backporting nodejs/node#44056 (I may try myself) because the rest of the merge conflicts/test failures build on top of that. Depending on if I can get that done in the next ~2 days, I may just work with @ruyadorno to get the giant 18.x release out next week for 8/23.

Sounds good to me @danielleadams 👍

@nodejs/releasers We have a release target of 2022-09-20. However, the Security Release (v18.10.0) will be issued on 2022-09-22. Would be ok to postpone the regular release to at least 2 days after the Security Release (24/09)? That would be better for me since I'm part of both releases.

@RafaelGSS I think we could push it back a week, or even skip this next minor release in favor of the security release. As long as commits from main get pulled in before it goes LTS, I think it's fine.

I can't push it a week, because I won't be able to do any release after 29 (until the middle of Oct). I think I can release it on 27/09 cutting commits from 23/09. What do you think?

@danielleadams

@RafaelGSS oh, I see. I think that's fine because the next target date is 04/10. I can also pick it up for 27/09 if you want with all the recent commits, and then we can see if we should push the 04/10 one out 1 week too.

Hi! Will there be a release between now and the LTS version? Would the LTS release actually only contain a version number bump commit?

Can you update the schedule, maybe also with planned releases like the 19 release schedule?
I think it's good to know when a release is scheduled, e.g. if you wait for a fix is deployed.

We will probably discuss and update the schedule in our monthly meeting next week.

I see new version already for node 19, new version of 18 was scheduled for yesterday, so I hope 18.13 will be released soon.

Is it possible to include the perf improvements from nodejs/node#46425 in the next v18.x release?

Hello @targos,
Do you have plans to upgrade OpenSSL to version 3.0.12 in v18.19.0? I am concerned about whether the following vulnerability will be resolved. https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-ALPINE317-OPENSSL-6032385

Yes, it will be part of it.

TODO: Re-enable these tests in Node.js v18 once the fix for this Node.js test runner bug is published in a v18 release:

nodejs/node#48845

The Node.js v18.19.0 release is scheduled for 2023-11-28:

nodejs/Release#737

Can we please land nodejs/node#50186 on the upcoming v18?

This is a bug fix. Because of this we are unable to move to node 18 and have to use node 16.

The Node-API team also needs nodejs/node#50991 in v18.x in order to unblock nodejs/node-addon-api#1409. Could you please add it to the upcoming v18 release?

Hi Folks,

Node.js v18 is in maintenance, implying we no longer perform scheduled releases to this release line. However, a release would only happen if one of these criteria is met:

  • A nasty bug is encountered
  • Security release
  • One of @nodejs/releasers decides/wants to perform a release

The suggestion to all Node.js users is to upgrade to Node.js 20 as soon as possible.

Now, that we have 18.x security release planned. can we land nodejs/node#50186 on v18 now?

Can we please add

to the next 18.x release? It's blocking nodejs/node-addon-api#1409.

Turns out they don't apply cleanly. So, I filed a PR:

nodejs/node#51804

@gabrielschulhof

May we please have nodejs/node#51801 in the next release? It will help us with our next Node-API release.

@richardlau

It will depend on timing. nodejs/node#51801 needs to go out in a current release first before being eligible for LTS, and usually be in a current release for two weeks. The next current release looks likely to be Node.js 22.0.0.
