| 34 | + |
| 35 | +* fs: drop duplicate API in promises mode [#20559](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/20559) |
| 36 | + * FYI, no opposition should just move forward |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +* doc: add documentation on porting from Buffer(arg) usage [#19827](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/19827) |

| 40 | + |
| 41 | +* Tracking Issue for Runtime Deprecation of Buffer constructor [#19079](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/19079) |
| 42 | + * Rich cannot make it, will update offline |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +### nodejs/TSC |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +* Tracking issue for updating TSC on Board Meetings [#476](https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/issues/476) |
| 47 | + * skip since Myles could not make the meeting |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +* Strategic Initiatives - Tracking Issue [#423](https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/issues/423) |
| 50 | + * N-API |
| 51 | + * Versions now out for 6.X, 8.X, 10.X and master (8.x needs an update to be up to date with the rest). |
| 52 | + * New version of node-addon-api published. |
| 53 | + * Focus is on adding doc for node-addon-api. |
| 54 | + * http2 |
| 55 | + * Still making progress, trying to let it stabilize. |
| 56 | + * May be updates to some of the error handling. |
| 57 | + * Workers |
| 58 | + * Slowly moving onward, waiting for a couple of PRs to land which lay the groundwork |
| 59 | + for both workers and other aspects like embedding. |
| 60 | + * Error Messages |
| 61 | + * Moving onward, nothing specific to report this week. |
| 62 | + * Core Promise APIs |
| 63 | + * Making progress, limiting to `fs` for now to figure out pattern and how to expose, not creating |
| 64 | + others until it settles. |
| 65 | + * New Streams APIs |
| 66 | + * Making some progress, getting pretty close to wanting to bring repo where the work is being |
| 67 | + done into Node.js org. |
| 68 | + * V8 currency |
| 69 | + * Last blocking issue for 6.7 upgrade being fixed upstream thanks to @mmarchini. It was again |
| 70 | + a problem related to us supporting an old Clang version. Issue was opened suggesting we |
| 71 | + upgrade the Clang version required to build node: https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/1264 |
| 72 | + * Async Hooks |
| 73 | + * Nearform team spent some time with google team pretty thoroughly and identified a number |
| 74 | + of performance bottlenecks. Matteo will open a PR that improves performance but requires |
| 75 | + an API change (was able to keep it from being breaking). |
| 76 | + * Trace Events |
| 77 | + * Ali working on enabling trace events support in inspector protocol as a way to get |
| 78 | + at the trace events |
| 79 | + * James working on intrinsic to for fast trace events from JavaScript. It is a PR that |
| 80 | + updates V8 but is against our repo for now to experiment. |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +* Proposal: add all new core modules under a scope? (too late for http2) [#389](https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/issues/389) |
| 83 | + * “module ids can change while the module is experimental” - do we agree on this? |
| 84 | + * Should we rename asap? |
| 85 | + * We have moved the promises API back to fs so not as critical, but still needs to be |
| 86 | + revisited. |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +## Q&A, Other |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | +* No questions this week. |
