Please reply with topics for the agenda and the amount of time you'd like to spend on them.

If there is interest, I can talk about dart2wasm, highlighting some of the relevant challenges and design decisions of the project. 20-30 minutes would be appropriate, I think.

[tlively]

That would be fantastic, thanks @askeksa-google!

Given the current conversation in #243, it may be useful to have a brief discussion/vote to clarify the intentions of the 08/24 resolution to prototype a nominal proposal. I think it's clear from the meeting notes that we were also expecting to prototype Andreas' revised structural proposal (or at least, something better than the current equi-recursive proposal), but the text of the previously agreed resolution may not reflect this (depending on how one interprets "minimum delta necessary").

[tlively]

Sure, let's plan to spend 10-15 minutes discussing concrete implementation and investigation plans.

Not an agenda item, but a related announcement: I plan to provide an overview of our progress on the proposal to the wider CG at the October 12 meeting (WebAssembly/meetings#889). @kripken and @jakobkummerow will be joining me to talk about the Binaryen optimizations and V8 side of things as well. Please let me know if you'd like to present progress on your own related GC work and I can add you to the presentation.

Thanks for the presentation, @askeksa-google! The notes PR is here: WebAssembly/meetings#893.

We didn't get to discuss our concrete prototyping or investigation plans in this meeting, but I've written my current thoughts on #243, so I hope we can continue the discussion there.
