## 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
|
