- I (Gab) will open some follow-up PRs to update team compasses, docs, calendars, etc.
Frederic
- GSoC 2024 update
  - Treeview PR ready for review
    - It adds some keyboard navigation and interaction with some slight visual changes - we loved to hear feedbacks
    - I'm not able to update the snapshots through comments - is it expected with the latest security changes? Should we relax the condition on the status of the commenter?
  - Builder is making good progress, we got jupyter labextension build/develop/watch
    - Next steps is gonna be to include jlpm and @jupyterlab/builder within that repo.
    - I have a question of code organization. That idea started as a PR in the hatch jupyter plugin. And seeing the link that that hatch builder will be tightly link to the new builder, should we use a single repo for both? I recall some counter arguments from Nick but can not find them any more
- Make the services manager PR a plugin
Andrii: JupyterLab PR 14375 "Settings Editor: remove pluginslist grey background" is ready for review, has green CI, and was approved by Jason W. Looking for more reviews or consensus that it's good to be merged.

If there is time at the end of the meeting, continue work trying to clear the JupyterLab 4.3.0 milestone.

Agenda

Andrii: PR 14375 "Settings Editor: remove pluginslist grey background" is merged. We wanted to release this settings editor UI change early as a part of an alpha to allow for user testing and feedback. Is there a plan for 4.3.0a3 before 4.3.0b1?
- Mike: yes, we are in alpha we will switch to beta on August 5th as per https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/16315
- Would be nice to wait for more PRs to be merged before doing another release, let's touch basis on new alpha release next week
Mike:
- CVE on extension-template/cookiecutter
  - https://github.com/jupyterlab/extension-cookiecutter-ts/security/advisories/GHSA-rc7c-v5qg-g3vw
  - https://github.com/jupyterlab/extension-template/security/advisories/GHSA-45gq-v5wm-82wg
- jupyter_ydoc and jupyter-collaboration packages
  - https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyter-collaboration/releases/tag/v3.0.0beta0 released
  - https://github.com/jupyter-server/jupyter_ydoc/pull/197
Jason W:
- Vote on the move to the Linux Foundation has closed and has passed
Frederic:
- in-app translation extension
  - Demo - compatible with lab and notebook 7; main remaining point is to create a Lite version
  - Question: Integration in Lab?
  - I'd like to add menu entries in the language menu to Install a language and Help with translation. The former is not related to the extension but the latter would install the extension (another possibility is to redirect to the Lite instance or the extension repo).
  - Should that extension be in the jupyterlab GitHub org? - for now it is in lab contrib
- Request for 4.2.x release following ws bump backport
  - What is the status of 4.2.x?
    [Mike] We can cut a new patch release - no-blocker

Agenda

Frederic (won't attend)
- New security rules and update snapshots job
  I looked at how best handle the current situation that prevents the update job to be executed on non-member PRs. It looks like the easiest would be to create a team with Read access (aka nothing more than what you can do on public repo) in which we invite trusted contributor as outside collaborator.
  For example I invited a GSoC contributor for test purpose (should be dropped at the end of this meeting if the approach is deemed wrong): Then on one of her PRs, the first update snapshot comment failed (she was not yet a collaborator). The second passed (she accepted the invitation).
- Follow up in a JupyterLab issue?
Jason W
- Request for comments: remove the move up/down buttons from the cell toolbar?
- Draft PR: add a per-cell "run" button?
  - Added issue to not show cell toolbar without disabling the plugin. https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/16609
Jeremy
- Use @jupyter/chat in Jupyter AI? https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyter-ai/issues/862
Mike
- jupyter-ai default model for magics https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyter-ai/issues/372
- JupyterLab 4.3 beta/feature freeze approaching
- Pull requests with "Needs Review" status: Needs Review
  - https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/10596
- Issues with important labels: Needs Design and Needs Discussion

- link to docs in downstream repos
- galata

Agenda

Jeremy (not attending the meeting, but sharing some updates on work-in-progress PRs):
- Allow customizing the ServiceManager with plugins: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/16794
  - Needs https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/16804, which is read for review
- Can be used to register the YDrive as the default drive, and likely fix issues related to the RTC: prefix: wip in https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyter-collaboration/pull/365
- Allows many more use cases
- Can be an alternative to https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/16744, as extensions would now be able to provide their on contents manager via an extension
- Some details still to be fixed and polished, but could be ready "soon"
Jason W
- Lab 4.3.0 release update/discussion
- 4.3.0 issues: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A4.3.0
Mike
- Ready for review (again): Fix overwriting shortcuts https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/16721
- New blocker for 4.3: Cannot open notebooks with stream in outputs in JupyterLab 4.3.0b0-1 https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/16812
Rosio (Will be late to meeting)
- After updating to latest jupyter_releaser and trying to release nbclassic, I realized I don't have the admin permissions required to do so. If someone could help me by granting me Admin privilege so I can release that would be helpful!
