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.

It would be very useful for the TSC to discuss (in the context of the the string formatting discussion) the impact on maintainers of moving things to core from npm and how the project can ensure it does it ethically and in a community friendly way.

V8 Currency: currently unable to update to >=10.3 due to multiple issues:

• Windows (debug build): deps: update V8 to 10.3 node#43195 (comment)
• Linux (debug build): DCHECK crash on !i_isolate->is_execution_terminating() node-v8#227
• macOS: Build error on osx node-v8#229 (there's a suggested fix in the issue, but be prepared for other problems with tests after the compilation is fixed)
• test-hash-seed started to fail recently: test-hash-seed fails node-v8#231

[RaisinTen]

@mhdawson we can remove nodejs/node#43017 from the agenda now.

[jasnell]

Just noting that issues #43382 and #43413 are related and should be discussed together.
