Minutes

adopt a charter

• group: +1’s all around

What versioning scheme should be adopted?

• group: +1’s 3.0.0
• domenic+group: pulling in patches from other sources where appropriate
• mikeal: version independently, suggesting versions for io.js
• mikeal+domenic: work with TC to notify in advance of changes simpler stream creation

streamline creation of streams

• sam: streamline creation of streams
• domenic: nice simple solution posted but, we lose the opportunity to change the model may not be backwards incompatible (double check keys)

action item: domenic will check

remove implicit flowing of streams on(‘data’)

• add isFlowing / isPaused
• mikeal: worrying that we’re documenting polyfill methods – confuses users
• domenic: more reflective API is probably good, with warning labels for users
• new section for mad scientists (reflective stream access)
• calvin: name the “third state”
• mikeal: maybe borrow the name from whatwg?
• domenic: we’re missing the “third state”
• consensus: kind of difficult to name the third state
• mikeal: figure out differences in states / compat
• mathias: always flow on data – eliminates third state
  • explore what it breaks

action items:

• ask isaac for ability to list packages by what public io.js APIs they use (esp. Stream)
• ask rod/build for infrastructure
• chris: explore the “flow on data” approach
• add isPaused/isFlowing
• add new docs section
• move isPaused to that section
