Description

This was brought up in the 2019-09-24 meeting issue by @Trott:

Not sure if this fits in with the package-maintenance team's goals/charter/whatever, but assistance getting things aligned in the ecosystem and Node.js 13.0.0 such that we minimize the pain of any Node.js breaking changes for end users would be 💯. Specifically, it would be great if we could get rid of as many CITGM issues there as possible.

We didn't really get a chance to discuss this during the meeting, so creating a separate issue for this:

  • What can we as part of this group do to help out on v13 and future releases?
  • How can package maintainers get involved?

Research direction

Start by reading the linked 2019-09-24 meeting issue and the CITGM issues referenced in the Node.js pull request comment. Determine which package failures and Node.js 13 compatibility work are in scope, then review how package maintainers could participate. Done would require an agreed, actionable plan for addressing the failures.
