does anyone know who the assigned reviewers for the Stage 2.7 (formerly Stage 3) decorator metadata proposal were?

<Michael Ficarra>
from the notes, it sounds like we may have skipped that part of the process for this proposal: https://github.com/tc39/notes/blob/HEAD/meetings/2023-05/may-18.md#decorator-metadata-final-spec-text-review-for-stage-3

I could not have told you that I was the one to present that

<Michael Ficarra>
it was only 3 years ago!

Thank you for the update. I'm glad we now have most of the performance.

<Rob Palmer>
I wonder if this will be sufficient to convince build tools to avoid downleveling by default.

<Olivier Flückiger>
Good question. If you do find cases where the performance degrades unacceptably we'd certainly have a look.

before the split from decorators, reviewers were RGN, SYG, JHD, LEO

it doesn't look like any reviewers were assigned when it split off, and as the notes says:

  • The spec text is written and reviewed by one editor, KG.

<Chris de Almeida>
so I think you're right that we missed that step in the process, especially as there were changes made to the spec after, and/or as part of, the split

I'm not necessarily saying we need to go back and do the proper reviews, I'm just trying to clean up historical data and wanted to know whether I should document that proposal as never having had 2.7 reviewers
16:10
<Chris de Almeida>
my 2 cents: document reality. it had stage 2 reviewers as part of the original proposal, but not when it split off. so I think it's less accurate to say that it never had reviewers (and similarly would not be accurate to state without qualification that it did)
16:15
<Michael Ficarra>
that kind of nuance is a little hard to encode in a structured data format
16:16
<Michael Ficarra>
in my current model, proposals have a list of 2.7 reviewers, and I can either use the pre-split assigned reviewers for the list in this case or leave it empty
16:16
<Michael Ficarra>
or you could argue that we should find a way to encode that nuance
16:17
<Chris de Almeida>
not sure it's worth bending over backwards to encode that nuance. if I had to pick, I would put the original reviewers if, as I suspect, it is more likely than not, that they had reviewed that spec text in an earlier form
