@nodejs/next-10 please check out suggested date/time and agenda, and help refine both.

I will be traveling (and on UTC-0) so am not sure I can commit, but I really would like to attend so will try. I assume it will be added to the OpenJS calendar when we finalize it?

[mhdawson]

@wesleytodd once we have agreement I can add it the calendar but it would be the Node.js calendar.

I can't make this session.

Hey, could you also discuss the pinned discussion, and how it will be looking in the future?

Can you elaborate on this @RedYetiDev? I am not sure which pinned discussion you mean because the only pinned issue I see is #217 which seems a bit unrelated to this deep dive. Just wanting to make sure I understand your ask 😀

[RedYetiDev]

Sorry, I figured that if your going to discuss next-10, not necessarily a funding question, but https://github.com/orgs/nodejs/discussions/47703 hasn't changed a while, and I'm wondering if maybe it's worth discussing.

IMO it feels like nothings going on that pinned discussion, and maybe something should, the Next-10 team usually handles what's going on in, well, the next 10 years, right?

[wesleytodd]

Ah ok, yeah that might be a bit better suited for a regular meeting. This specific meeting is a "deep dive" which we sometimes schedule to try and dig into one specific topic to see if we can make progress on some bigger topic.

Oh my apologies! Have a nice meeting :-)

[mhdawson]

We only had a few people join so we agreed to defer. We will try to figure out if:

1. there is no interest
2. there is interest but people are not interested in a meeting to discuss
3. it was a bad time
4. not enough awareness of the deep dive

and decide what to do next.

TODO: create a doodle and revamp the deep dive

[voxpelli]

If its open for anyone to join then I can try to join if it works for me CET-time

it's open to anyone, I'll create a doodle and propose a few time slots (I'm in CET too)

An update for those following this issue but haven't kept up to date with meeting minutes and Slack discussions:

I believe the ambition now is for this to be discussed at the OpenJSF summit rather than arranging some virtually through the doodle: openjs-foundation/summit#420 Probably requires attendance to the OpenJSF Summit to participate

[mhdawson]

Next step is the session at the summit, agreed in the team meeting today to take off the agenda until that happens.
