New:

  • @server-workgroup to re-review 2021 goals post async once updates are made per review in today's meeting

Discussion:

  • GitHub Actions
    • Setup for Swift in CI should be straightforward but we need to decide on the right home for it
    • Some discussion around caching. SwiftPM will take an argument for a cache path
  • Docker releases seem to lag Swift releases by a few days, e.g. the Swift 5.4 images are not up yet.
    • This is just a delay in process, no technical reason for the delay.
  • Remaining discussion around forthcoming 2021 goals blog post.

@kmahar is this something that is being proposed? Do you have any more details around this as it's something we would love to see for our own project.

Unfortunately I've forgotten the details myself as this was a couple weeks ago, but @tomerd may be able to provide more context

@dlbuckley @kmahar the context was setting the cache path in CI systems to make the builds faster, and this option exists starting swift 5.4
