+
+
+### Invite Domenic Denicola to the TC Meetings
+
+(https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/403)
+
+Enough agreement on GitHub and in private communications amongst TC. **Done.**
+
+### Governance: Add new collaborators 
+
+(https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/234)
+
+* Mikeal: Proposed Chris leads an onboarding process, do a Hangout with a group of people from the original list who are willing to go through the process and take them in the first week and iterate from there.
+* Bert: +1 for an onboarding process, more interested in handing out voting rights to a larger group.
+* Mikeal: Would rather separate the voting rights issue from adding contributors, make a separate issue for this with ideas and come back to it at next meeting.
+* Ben: is an onboarding process necessary? New contributor should pick it up fairly quickly.
+* Chris: How we review code and deal with issues (cultural things) is hard to get across with just a written process.
+* Isaac: Basically apprentice model for joyent/node but faster and more inclusive. Some brief instruction on how to do things.
+* Mikeal: adding collaborators gives us an informal voting process, +/-1s on issues with the “collaborator” badge
+* Bert: would like to widen and formalise the voting process
+* Mikeal: wants to tackle the issue by bringing org to the roadmap repo, will bring Bert in on the process
+
+Discussed whether onboarding should be mandatory.
+
+Proposal: **take anyone proposed that +1s in that thread, mandatory onboarding process by Chris, limited by how many he can take.**
+
+Passed
+
+
+### Stabilization and Release Cycles and Process 
+
+(https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/405)
+
+#### V8
+
+* Mikeal:
+  - how to align with V8 process and increase collaboration
+  - semver + V8 introduces some challenges
+* Domenic: V8 is synced to Chrome releases, Beta should ship with the version that ships with release
+* Ben: is the proposal to stick with stable V8 release that’s in stable Chrome?
+* Domenic: ideally some “beta” version of io.js that uses a Beta V8
+* Mikeal: we need more releases to get experience with this, assumption is that at some point we say “this is stable” and have a stable and unstable branch.
+* Discussed current release patterns, how they map to minor/patch
+* Domenic: we are in a “danger zone”
+* Mikeal & Domenic discussed how you might achieve a “canary”
+* Bert: proposal:
+  - io.js track stable V8, bump minor and possibly major as required
+  - have a pre-release that tracks the Beta
+* Domenic: would like to keep V8 version upgrades as a separate concern to other experimental additions to io.js, decouple from io.js releases / semver?
+* Ben: happy with stable proposal, want to move discussion on unstable to an issue for further discussion.
+* Action: **Ben file an issue to discuss how unstable works**
+* **Agreement: V8 should track stable**
+
+#### Logo
+
+* Discussed logo-per-release
+* Mikeal: we need a versatile logo to use across all web / social presences. Having a logo to designate a release would be good.
+* Mikeal: ideally website team would like JSON file containing release info to be checked in to the website repo upon completion.
+
+#### Releases
+
+* Rod: patch releases should be frequent, there have been 4 so far, it seems to be working well but we should monitor
+* Domenic: frequent releases should be normal, patch & minor should just be part of the normal process
+* Bert: would be good to have API change notes into the git log
+* Discussed further about how to deal with API changes minor/major, unstable branches, etc.
+* **Agreement: patch and minor releases are merged as part of normal business, a release then is either a patch or minor bump depending on what was merged.**
+* Move discussion about tagging vs git log recording for patch/minor/major to GitHub.
+* **Punt on discussions about who can release and how that happens**
+* **Punt on discussions about synchronizing with important ecosystem projects (NAN, node-gyp, nvm, etc.)**
+
+
+
+### also: the state of ES6 on io.js (re: V8 upgrade policy) 
+
+(https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/251)
+
+Part of previous discussion
+
+### doc: bump punycode api stability to ‘stable’ 
+
+(https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/470)
+
+* **Agreement**
+
+### Working group reports
+
+* Mikeal and Chris to semi-formalise the model
+* Mikeal: 6 people actively engaged and growing, “could not be going better”
+* Chris: streams group has initial set of members, some discussions going on, first meeting pending
+  * initial set of members: https://github.com/iojs/readable-stream/issues/97#issuecomment-70399923
+* Rod:
+  - The Docker sub-group is going great and has even got the docker-iojs images accepted as the official Docker "iojs" images.
+  - Other "build" efforts are all release-focused for now, trying to streamline the process to make it possible to have multiple people able to cut releases.
+
+
+### ICU
+
+* Bert:
+  - joyent/node has small-icu enabled by default making `Intl` work
+  - can get it working but it makes the binary twice as big (~8M more)
+* Domenic: ideally we would track browsers and just include it
+* Ben: V8 adds ICU by default but you need to opt-out, which we do
+* Action: **Invite Steven Loomis to the next TC meeting to discuss further**
+
+
+### Next meeting
+
+* 28th January 2015
