• For those who just want to watch We stream our conference call straight to YouTube so anyone can listen to it live, it should start playing at https://www.youtube.com/c/nodejs+foundation/live when we turn it on. There's usually a short cat-herding time at the start of the meeting and then occasionally we have some quick private business to attend to before we can start recording & streaming. So be patient and it should show up.

I won't be ale to attend today, but I am trying to generate the OSSF reporting. Seems like GitHub at the moment is having some issues with the Actions, GitHub Status

[UlisesGascon]

Fast analysis from my side on the scoring:

• No actions are required by the team 🎉
• PR (for tracking): OpenSSF Scorecard Report Updated #1242
• Issue (for best evaluation): OpenSSF Scorecard Report Updated! #1241

[marco-ippolito]

Mind that today security wg will be followed by the next-10 deep dive.

[richardlau]

FYI, I've opened #1243 to cover the increasing number of 503 errors being hit in https://github.com/nodejs/nodejs-dependency-vuln-assessments/actions/workflows/daily.yml.

[RafaelGSS]

I won't be able to host it due to nodejs/admin#854
