+# 12/28/2023 ESLint TSC Meeting Transcript
+
+**nzakas:** Howdy 👋
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Hi!
+
+**nzakas:** As expected, looks like we don't have any individual issues or PRs flagged for the meeting, so let's jump right into v9
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**nzakas:** https://github.com/orgs/eslint/projects/4/views/2
+
+**nzakas:** Overall looks like we are in good shape.
+
+**nzakas:** I did add https://github.com/eslint/eslint/issues/17820 to the board because it would be nice to get in for the alpha.
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Yes, most of the task for alpha are done
+
+**nzakas:** I'm working on the remaining flat config tasks today
+
+**mdjermanovic:** What are the remaining tasks for flat config for alpha?
+
+**nzakas:** which is basically swapping `FlatESLint` and `ESLint`, and moving `FlatRuleTester` to be `RuleTester`.
+
+**nzakas:** And then we need to update the migration guide with everything that's been merged
+
+**mdjermanovic:** To rename files?
+
+**nzakas:** files and classes, yes
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Ah, ok. But if we don't manage to finish that, we could still release alpha because those are only internal things?
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Except for maybe that class names might appear in error stacks
+
+**nzakas:** Right, that's why I'd like to get those in for alpha.
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**nzakas:** I'd also like to see if we can merge https://github.com/eslint/eslint/pull/17885/. If not, then I think we should at least remove `no-inner-declarations` from `eslint:recommended` for alpha
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Yes, I was thinking the same. If it's not ready to merge, we can extract removing the rule from `eslint:recommended` into a separate PR
+
+**mdjermanovic:** I'll check tomorrow if the PR seems ready, if not then I'll prepare a small PR to just remove the rule from `eslint:recommended`
+ * 👍 @nzakas
+
+**nzakas:** For notes clarity, on https://github.com/eslint/eslint/pull/17885/ we have agreed that: 1) we'd like to merge for alpha if ready, but if not 2) we will create a separate PR to remove `no-inner-declarations` from `eslint:recommended` for alpha.
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**mdjermanovic:** As for the flat config tasks, do we also need new API docs for alpha.0? https://eslint.org/docs/latest/integrate/integration-tutorial
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Sorry, I meant this one: https://eslint.org/docs/latest/integrate/nodejs-api
+
+**mdjermanovic:** But now when looking at the tutorial, it needs to be updated too 🙂
+
+**nzakas:** Hehe yes, they both need to be updated. I was going to attempt to do that with the filename/classes renaming.
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**nzakas:** We do have some ancillary dangling things that we need to update, but I think it's okay to not have ready for alpha.0: 1) Updating `@eslint/create-config` and 2) updating the playground
+
+**nzakas:** We do have https://github.com/eslint/create-config/issues/51 for the first one
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Yes, we didn't use to have playground/demo for prereleases
+
+**nzakas:** I think it's safe to switch the playground over to generate a `eslint.config.js` file as that will work for both v8 and v9
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Hm, yes, maybe we could consider switching the playground to flat config during prereleases
+
+**nzakas:** Makes sense to me. Can you open an issue for that?
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Yes
+
+**nzakas:** Thanks
+
+**mdjermanovic:** What do you think about the timing for alpha.0, can we do it tomorrow?
+
+**nzakas:** I think so, as long as I can finish the filename/class renaming before then.
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**nzakas:** I have the `ESLint`/`FlatESLint` stuff mostly done, so we're in good shape. I'll be able to put in an hour tomorrow morning, too.
+
+**mdjermanovic:** So, maybe we could schedule the release time tomorrow, then see if we're ready, and if we're ready then do the release
+
+**nzakas:** That sounds good. I was assuming you'd want to start roughly around the start time of this meeting?
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Yes, that's a perfect time for me
+
+**nzakas:** Okay, I'll be here. 👍
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**nzakas:** We should do a final review of the migration guide before starting the release to see if we missed anything.
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**nzakas:** For notes clarity: We will plan on starting the release at 4pm EST on December 29th. At that time, we'll review the migration guide and any open PRs necessary for alpha to make a go/no-go decision.
+
+**mdjermanovic:** The biggest change is, of course, switching to the flat config format, but we already have a migration guide for that so we could just link to that guide from the main v9 migration guide document https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/migration-guide
+
+**nzakas:** Yeah, for both flat config and plugins, we already have migration guides that we can point people to.
+
+**nzakas:** Tangentially related, is it important to get that `eslint-scope` change merged for alpha.0?
+
+**nzakas:** https://github.com/eslint/eslint-scope/issues/59
+
+**mdjermanovic:** I think not
+
+**mdjermanovic:** But we could aim to get that change in the next release (alpha.1 , or if the next release happens to be beta, then beta.0)
+
+**nzakas:** Sounds good. I would like to get it in before the final v9.0.0 release
+
+**mdjermanovic:** That's for ESLint, but since the `eslint-scope` is a separate package that can be and is used outside ESLint, for that package itself is better to release the change in x.0.0
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Yes, we should aim to finish that change in `eslint-scope `before the final eslint v9.0.0 release, ideally as soon as possible
+ * 👍 @nzakas
+
+**nzakas:** Okay, any other things to discuss for tomorrow (or otherwise)?
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Nothing in particular. The tasks related to the release infrastructure are done I believe, so that should be good for tomorrow
+
+**nzakas:** Well this will be a fun experiment. 🙂
+
+**nzakas:** First major release with the new docs site
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Hopefully nothing will break, there have been really a lot of changes since the last major release
+
+**nzakas:** That's just part of the fun.
+
+**nzakas:** I think we should hold off on contributor pool considering all the PRs we might be merging tomorrow
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Agreed
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Though I'll be away 10-17 January. That includes the next meeting date (and unfortunately the next release date)
+
+**nzakas:** We can always do that out-of-band before you leave
+ * 👍 @mdjermanovic
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Yes, agreed
+
+**nzakas:** Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll get back to coding.
+
+**mdjermanovic:** Thanks! 👋
+
+**nzakas:** See you tomorrow!
+
+**mdjermanovic:** See you!
