CI Stability

GitHub

CI Stability - how do we get it green?

Brainstorm approaches to getting CI green.

Daily builds always fail, and since master can't build Green in a single shot, neither can a PR. Having to re-run CI repeatedly for even a simple change to confirm it doesn't introduce a regression is burdensome, and risks people starting to ignore our CI because its false positive rate is too high.

We have improved the chance of success a bit lately by aggressively marking tests as flaky, but this amounts to ignoring tests so is a problematic strategy.

failing daily builds: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-daily-master/
flaky tests: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22CI+%2F+flaky+test%22

Unifying Hook Systems in Node.js

GitHub

Over the years the number of needs emerging for hooking into the API call lifecycle has increased. There are many parallel efforts that could use some unified vision to ensure we come to the most flexible yet performant solution we can.

We've had async_hooks for a while now, providing an identifying hook into the async stack graph. There was also discussion about a generic diagnostics channel for APIs to communicate diagnostic data to any interested consumers such as APMs. More recently, we've seen efforts around policy enforcement, es module loader hooks, input validation or modification, and mocking.

I would like to discuss what the numerous needs are for a hook system in Node.js, where needs intersect, and chart a path forward to implement something that can satisfy those needs as effectively and as efficiently as possible.

Node.js: The next 10 years

GitHub

Node.js the next 10 years - kickoff. The TSC has been discussing how to do a summit on what we should focus on to repeat the success of the 10 years of Node.js (see nodejs/TSC#797 (comment) for proposed agenda). Originally we were thinking of in person but given the current situation we discussed virtual in nodejs/TSC#836 but there are many challenges.

What we have agreed is that we'd like to do a kickoff as part of the OpenJS World Collaborator summit. Ideally covering:

Retrospective (1-2 hours?)
- What were the key things that made Node.js successful in the last 10 years
- What were the key values that supported that success
- What worked in the management of the project, what did not
Looking Forward
- Review of Key technologies/trends that will influence what we should do in Node.js and
  agree on prioritized list of those we should do further deep dives on.

Internationalization & Globalization support for Node.js

GitHub

Get up to date with Internationalization and Globalization support for Node.js!

The format of this session will be divided into 3 parts:

A brief overview of the history of Globalization's evolution as achieved through projects of the Unicode Consortium (Unicode, ICU, CLDR), from its beginnings on through to exciting new developments like ICU4X. This will also cover how this work has enabled localization initiatives like i18n in node, and what the new relationship between the OpenJS Foundation and the Unicode Consortium means for projects like ICU, CLDR, and their scaling role within the JavaScript ecosystem.
A discussion on the current status of the i18n initiative in node.
A call for participation in the i18n WG: to support both Globalization in node core, and the localization of node's resources (websites, documentation, etc).
