CPC and Board Meeting Updates

*Extracted from tsc-agenda labeled issues and pull requests from the nodejs org prior to the meeting.

nodejs/node

  • tools: add ncrypto updater script #61613
    • Antoine: James and Yagiz not joining today
    • Joyee: Better go back to GitHub
    • Richard: we need to figure out if we do want to keep nodejs/ncrypto the source of truth
    • Joyee: the biggest issue currently is nodejs/ncrypto doesn't test all configurations we support, like various dynamically linked OpenSSL versions
    • Richard: it could add GHA to test it, but the question about whether we want to move the source of truth remains, the rest is more logistics
    • Antoine: we also have BoringSSL
    • Richard: BoringSSL is tolerated in Node.js but not officially supported
  • sqlite: mark as release candidate #61262
    • Bart gave some context on the current blocker (the current SyncDatabase might be renamed to Database if there's consensus). Hopefully can be resolved on GitHub.
  • Time sensitive: GitHub Actions Cache rate limits (from GitHub staff) #61436
    • Antoine: How much cache does Jenkins use?
    • Richard: 5GB per platform
    • Joyee: it seems we are sharing caches between main and release branches. Maybe just disable caching the non-main branches
    • Bart: it's possible to use S3 bucket storage for the cache
    • Richard: the org doesn't have S3 storage either
    • Joyee: I can PR in a few lines per workflow to disable sccache on non-main
  • build, doc: use new api doc tooling #57343
    • James and Claudio not here, skipping
  • util: add colorize functionality #43523
    • Ruben: Should we adopt a chalk-like API in addition to styleText?
    • Joyee: Looks like it can't resolve by itself on GitHub, maybe go for a vote if you want to get a decision?
    • Marco: I had some issues with styleText. I think we should move forward with colorize.

nodejs/TSC

  • Dormant Docker Working Group #1818
    • Richard: disconnect between the discussion happening in public and private emails
    • Joyee: would it help if we get people into a meeting to speed up the discussions?
  • Collaborator Summits 2026 #1800
    • Dates have been confirmed. 14-15 April.
    • Reminder to propose sessions.
  • Update charter with communication responsibilities #1754
    • Joyee: seems stalled for half of an year. Neither Matteo nor James are here, can't make any progress
    • Joyee: the website issue was blocked by this one, recently they restarted discussions about removing reference to mastodon since this issue is not coming to a conclusion
  • Self-serve model for funding Node.js work #1747
    • Richard: Webpack seems to have other funding sources even though they are in OpenJSF
    • Joyee: they have open collective it seems
    • Joyee: also noticed that Github security just started donating to Node.js org via github sponsor donating a bigger sum, but that seems to have been agreed by OpenJS before and it's just funneling money this way (because they are GitHub)
  • Draft Statement of Work - Test reliability lead #1629
    • Joyee: Looks like there's an overall issue of having some funding, but not enough for 1 FTE, and also no volunteer to do the PM work to hash out the scope of work. Need more volunteer to do that PM work.

nodejs/web-team

  • Nominating @MattIPv4 as web-admin #88
    • Joyee: what is web-admin? Why does the decision need to be made by TSC?
    • Richard: it's not very clear. maybe web should have a WG at this point
    • Joyee: going to ask a clarifying question in the issue
