Hey all!
NodeJS version 4 isn't a supported version anymore - and what's more there are no packages for it for bionic.
To that end, all of the UI projects that are currently requesting node_version: 4 in their npm jobs [0] or who are using any of the templates that start with nodejs4- [1] are about to have a large amount of sad.
I would personally recommend updating to node_version: 10 - since that's the most recent LTS and would give us until 2021-04-01 [2] before we need to deal with things again.
BUT - I don't have a real opinion on course of action - I figure that's likely something to be discussed amongst the various UI projects. The only thing I have an opinion on is that the outcome probably shouldn't be "shrug, nodejs4 is fine". :)

It sounds like the TC needs to add node to the per-cycle tested platform list, like we have done for python and golang. Someone please propose the update to the governance site when you decide which version to use. Doug
