Minutes

adopt a charter

  • group: +1's all around

What versioning scheme should be adopted?

  • group: +1s 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 were 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: were 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
