async_hooks ESM

Describe the session

In https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/44323#issuecomment-1230508612, @GeoffreyBooth and myself have tried to identify where the promises that are not tracked by async_hooks are created, so that we can:

1. clarify that there are no bugs using ESM+async_hooks, as those promise chains do not lead to user code being run.
2. clarify what bug this is causing so we can fix them

What's the time of this session, in UTC? I'm confused by the spreadsheet, as the timezone it lists I think isn't Ireland time?

Also the Zoom link please.

I think it's 1400 in UTC.

[WaleedAshraf]

The schedule is in Ireland time. Sorry for the confusion. @GeoffreyBooth

Here are the recordings.

• Main room - Day 1 - Before lunch - Recording
• Main room - Day 1 - After lunch - Recording
• Main room - Day 2 - Before lunch - Recording

I've also added the recording links in the schedule sheet. Sorry, we couldn't record the sessions in the second room. Hopefully next time we'll prepare better.

I'll close this issue as the event has passed. Thanks, everyone for being part of it and for the support.
