This was a relatively small meeting since folks traveling to the server side swift conference 🙂

Present: @ktoso @FranzBusch @adam-fowler @patrick @davmoser

## Done

- Swiftly README update and prepare move to not-personal organization soon
  - all that's left is a PR for "uninstall" and a small script for bootstrapping
  - set up CI etc.
  - did not send list of requirements for the website yet, so will do soon

- [@patrick](https://forums.swift.org/u/patrick) to post on the forums about issue with regex + `--static-swift-stdlib`
  - posted: [Issues with using 5.7 `Regex` on Linux](https://forums.swift.org/t/issues-with-using-5-7-regex-on-linux/61344)
  - and it turned out it's a serious issue
  - `main` has the fix already, so should land in a release soon

- [@ktoso](https://forums.swift.org/u/ktoso) to set up an out-of-band SSWG meeting to discuss logging/tracing APIs and send out some relevant reading ahead of time.
  - meeting did happen and was very useful
  - third revision of `MetadataProvider` in swift-log is likely final and ready to go: [RFC (rev 3): Metadata Providers (for Distributed Tracing) in LogHandlers in swift-log by ktoso · Pull Request #238 · apple/swift-log · GitHub](https://github.com/apple/swift-log/pull/238)

- [@tomerd](https://forums.swift.org/u/tomerd) - looking into issue [Stdio not output at correct point · Issue #61247 · apple/swift · GitHub 2](https://github.com/apple/swift/issues/61247)
  - conclusion is that we should be flushing at end of test
  - it used to happen but was removed

## Carry overs

- [@tomerd](https://forums.swift.org/u/tomerd) continuing work on getting community survey published
- [@graskind](https://forums.swift.org/u/graskind) - Fluent code generation
- [@adam-fowler](https://forums.swift.org/u/adam-fowler) working on Self hosting VSCode swift dev-container template
  - have a template set up
  - asked MS if looks fine
  - we must have a github action though
    - there is a process outside github actions

- [@0xTim](https://forums.swift.org/u/0xtim) - working with Canonical Swift to bring author to an SSWG meeting. May not happen before Server-Side Swift Conf now
- [@FranzBusch](https://forums.swift.org/u/franzbusch) to start a thread with a list of things missing from Swift on the server, once he has access to the SSWG forums area.
- [@ktoso](https://forums.swift.org/u/ktoso) to review and test out Swift plugin for API Gateway.
- all SSWG to review/respond on [distributed actors cluster](https://forums.swift.org/t/sswg-0020-distributed-actors-cluster/61164) proposal thread if you have input.
  - pending approval thread that Kaitlin will do

- [@0xTim](https://forums.swift.org/u/0xtim) to file issues in [swift-docc](https://github.com/apple/swift-docc) repo around features Vapor would need to fully adopt it
  - not sure if done

Swiftly

- [@tomerd](https://forums.swift.org/u/tomerd) and [@patrick](https://forums.swift.org/u/patrick) to work out moving Swiftly to swift-server org and getting CI setup
  - waiting on patrik to give the go-ahead, after some last polish

## New topics

- @FranzBusch are you using CPU use from inside your application?
  - so that the metric is specific to given app, not overall system load
  - everyone: not really, just system metrics
  - Franz may look into this a bit more

- @FranzBusch change to SPM was merged; we now can Vend binary artifact bundles as products.
  - spm target that is backed by a binary; so we can vend `protoc` now :party:

- @FranzBusch ServiceLifecycle thoughts, we likely want to discuss it after Cory's conference talk is publicly available and write a follow up blog
  - @ktoso TaskPools pitched [[Pitch] Task Pools](https://forums.swift.org/t/pitch-task-pools/61703)
    - it avoids memory leaks and helps in RPC servers etc.
