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.

There is also a request from the OpenJS staff to come to the meeting as well. Not sure if public or private part yet but wanted to give people a heads up that there will likely be additional discussion beyond what is on the agenda listed.

[mhdawson]

Ok confirmed the additional topics will be for a private section

[Trott]

Adding nodejs/node#43897 to the agenda. I propose that we re-instate @ronag, but that needs to be actually done by the TSC as our charter specifies that removal in this situation is automatic. Hopefully we have a quorum and can do this quickly first thing in the meeting.

[GeoffreyBooth]

Re the loaders stuff, I just updated the status/roadmap for the loaders team here: https://github.com/nodejs/loaders#status

[mhdawson]

Sent email to tsc email list with FYI on topics for private section.

[BethGriggs]

I'll be travelling during the meeting tomorrow, would like to express my +1 to reinstating.
