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.

[mcollina]

Due to the shorter timeframe, I'd like to invite @rginn to this TSC meeting to discuss https://www.opentech.fund/funds/free-and-open-source-software-sustainability-fund/. The deadline is the 17th of May, so we need to move fast.

[mhdawson]

Added this to agenda as FYI - nodejs/node#52857

[mhdawson]

Looks like we are going to have 2 invited guests so we will need to reserve at least 40 mins for those discussions. I think we could spend the first 10 mins covering some of the issues which are for awareness, to get TSC members thinking about the topics and then defer detailed discussions if necessary to later meetings.

If there are any of the issues you think we need to try to fit in more time for versus possibly talking about next week, please let me know.

[mhdawson]

My proposal for the meeting tomorrow is

1. 10 mins to cover shorter topics on the agenda
2. 20 min session led by Robin to discuss new sustainability program
3. 20 min private session to cover - Coordinating nodejs security audit report finalization and publication Coordinating nodejs security audit report finalization and publication #1546
