Repository for discussion on how to help ensure baseline maintenance and ability to safely use key packages in the ecosystem with current Node.js versions. You can find more about this initiative in the article: Call to Action: Accelerating Node.js Growth

Goals

  • Define and document how to prioritize which packages are key to the Node.js ecosystem and how/what assistance can/should be provided. One of the key aspects of this is understanding what communication channels we need in order to be able to identify when specific issues are slowing migration from one Node.js version to another or causing friction in the ecosystem in some other way.
  • Building and documenting guidance, tools and processes that businesses can use to identify packages on which they depend, and then to use this information to be able to build a business case that supports their organization and developers helping to maintain those packages.
  • Documenting a backlog and providing resources that help businesses identify how their developers can ramp up and get engaged to help. Test and validate a workflow by helping with some issues that are slowing migration to Node.js 10.x.
  • Building, documenting and evangelizing guidance, tools and processes (for example LTS for modules) that make it easier for maintainers to manage multiple streams and accept help from those who depend on their module.

Joining

We encourage participation from members across the Node.js and JavaScript ecosystem. Feel free to join schedule meetings and participate in the issues within the repository. If you'd like to be listed as a team member, open a PR adding yourself to this README.md along with a few words on how you are planning to contribute to the team's efforts.

Logistics

Meetings

Meetings of the working group typically occur TBD as shown on the the node.js project calendar. A few days before each meeting, an issue will be created with the date and time of the meeting. The issue will provide schedule logistics as well as an agenda, links to meeting minutes, and information about how to join as a participant or a viewer.
