+## Minutes
+
+Due to IBM’s acquisition of StrongLoop, IBM is over the TSC 25% company limit rule. Michael Dawson and Steven Loomis have stepped down from TSC, but they are here as observers.
+
+### Standup
+
+* Rod Vagg: Released 4.0.0, also 3.3.1 maintenance release. Getting the build system ready for building/publishing 0.10 and 0.12 binaries.
+* Brian White: not much, triaging issues and PRs, some work on dns parser
+* Steven R Loomis: tsc resignation for IBM/SL merge, some issue triage, working on a more robust download for ICU (ICU server was overloaded, fixed to ICU again redirects to sourceforge, discussed longer term discussions) 
+* Fedor Indutny: v8’s ArrayBuffer fixes, reviewing PRs, fixing issues
+* Bert Belder: very few reviews/issue comments. Some libuv work on rwlocks.
+* Colin Ihrig: not much, some issue tracker work
+* Trevor Norris: Trying to make things (including Buffers) faster, some issue/PR review
+* Shigeki Ohtsu: Just a few reviews of issues.
+* Chris Dickinson: Working on shoving static npm analysis data into a database, slowly    
+* Jeremiah Senkpiel: NodeConf.eu, issues and PRs, 4.1.0 release
+* Ben Noordhuis: only PR review and responding to bug reports, a patch or two upstreamed to v8
+* Alexis Campailla: ARM cross-compile for CI. Misc fixes for VS 2015 / Win10
+* Domenic Denicola: some issue and PR review, talking with v8 team
+* Michael Dawson: landed the build updated for AIX, also updating the tests for AIX where necessary. Looking into PPC failures. Working on getting us hooked into v8 security notifications.
+
+### Previous meeting’s agenda
+
+* Jenkins merge jobs always overwrites PR-URL and Reviewed-By [#179](https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/179)
+* doc: update COLLABORATOR_GUIDE [#2638](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2638)
+* deps: update v8 to 4.5.103.30 [#2632](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2632)
+* Node.js v4 Release Timeline [#2522](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/2522)
+* Inspecting Node.js with Chrome DevTools [#2546](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/2546)
+
+### Deprecate Array#values() in 0.12.x [#25877](https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/25877)
+
+### Deprecate smalloc in v0.12 [#25784](https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/25784)
+
+Jeremiah: Are these things that we think we can do? Should we go ahead with that? Is it a good idea to deprecate these things?
+
+Ben: How are we going to deprecate? Literal `util.deprecate`?
+
+Jeremiah: Probably?
+
+Trevor: They’re already floating a patch
+
+Rod: I’m fine with deprecating smalloc
+
+Trevor: Is there a deprecation cycle between LTS? I’m not sure how this would work? (i.e., if we deprecate now, LTS -> LTS upgraders will not see a deprecation warning.)
+
+Rod: Maybe punt to LTS WG? It could be quite a lot — it could be that we decide between stable versions to remove things (or we’re forced to), do we backport the deprecation to LTS?
+
+Jeremiah: I think it should be only for things we’re _forced_ to remove 
+
+Action: Punt to LTS WG
+
+### Inspecting Node.js with Chrome DevTools [#2546](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/2546)
+
+Trevor: Have an 80% understanding of the work needed: WebSocket support in core (though not necessarily exposed publicly), API injection points. Are we ok with including web sockets support one way or another?
+
+Rod, Domenic, others: +1
+
+### util: Remove p, has been deprecated for years [#2529](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/2529)
+
+Discussion of Buffer “raw{s,}” encoding as well — undocumented, deprecated, inconsistently implemented in core.
+
+Action: Remove util.p (Jeremiah to respond.)
+
+Bert: Perhaps we should bulk remove?
+
+Rod: util.p is relatively trivial, has a deprecation warning, etc.
+
+Jeremiah: Brought this up because these things have been deprecated forever. util.exec has been deprecated for a while, as well.
+
+Trevor: raw/raws are deprecated in name only, no warnings, but C++ layer does not know about them (falls back to utf8) — maybe should be removed as a bugfix, because it does not work consistently.
+
+Action: Chris to list “least used stuff” (with apologies for how longs its taken!)
