Community Calls
wasmCloud v2 Launch, Pod Finalizer Demo, WASI P3 Q2 Planning & Cooperative Threads
The April 1, 2026 wasmCloud community call opens with Jeremy Fleitz demoing a host pod finalizer change that cuts wasmCloud's reconciliation loop from over two minutes to roughly four seconds when a host pod dies — a bug found at KubeCon. Bailey Hayes walks through wasmCloud v2's scheduling architecture, kicks off Q2 planning with a tracked WASI P3 implementation behind a feature flag, and shares progress on the JCO reference implementation, cooperative threads in LLVM, and Joel's just-landed WASI socket support in Tokio and Mio. The call wraps with takeaways from KubeCon Europe and Wasm I/O, including a clear shift in the conversation from "what is WebAssembly?" to "how do I deploy it in production?"
wasmCloud v2.0.1 Released, KubeCon EU & Wasmcon Recap
A short March 25, 2026 wasmCloud Wednesday hosted by Jeremy Fleitz from KubeCon EU in Amsterdam. The main news: wasmCloud v2.0.1 is out (a quick follow-up to v2.0 to move wash into the wasmCloud monorepo and clean up the release build), the docs site is updated to match the v2 release, and WebAssembly is getting markedly more attention at the conferences this year — at both the Cosmonic booth and the CNCF wasmCloud Project Pavilion booth.
wasmCloud v2 Pre-Launch, StarlingMonkey, componentize-js Rewrite & JCO P3 Streams
The March 18, 2026 wasmCloud Wednesday is a short conference-week call dominated by Victor Adossi's deep dive on the JavaScript ecosystem. Bailey Hayes is calling in from Wasm I/O in Barcelona finalizing the wasmCloud v2 release cut. Victor walks through the new StarlingMonkey 0.30 release with the Weval optimization layer re-enabled, Joel Dice's rewrite of componentize-js to Rust using wit-dylib, Tomasz's parallel componentize-qjs effort built on QuickJS-NG, JCO's freshly-landed stream support for WASI P3, and a fully vibe-coded JavaScript host for the WebAssembly component model — complete with a Go-in-the-browser demo.
Couchbase Host Plugin Demo, Repo Reorganization & wasmCloud v2 RC8
The March 11, 2026 wasmCloud Wednesday is hosted by Jeremy Fleitz for the first time (in the spirit of a rotating "host group" for the meeting). Jeremy demos a new Couchbase host plugin that ports the old wasmCloud Couchbase provider into the v2 host-plugin model, walks through the repo reorganization that moves wash into the main wasmCloud/wasmCloud monorepo with a release-1.9.x branch preserved, and Lucas Fontes shares the plan for v2 RC9 — the last RC, with Wasmtime 42, WASI P3 experimental support, and Pavel's fuel-tracking metrics. Eric introduces the new v2 templates and examples page as a single canonical source for component examples across languages.
Bytecode Alliance Summit Recap, Named Interfaces & wasmCloud v2 Plugin Simplification
The March 4, 2026 wasmCloud community call recaps the Bytecode Alliance Summit (Luke Wagner's road to component-model 1.0, Cy Brand on cooperative threads, Joel Dice on guest languages, Alex Crichton on landing proposals, Victor Adossi on JCO), introduces wasmCloud v2's named interfaces feature for using the same WIT interface multiple times under different names, explains why the wash CLI component-plugin system is being removed in favor of shell hooks, and walks through the repo migration from wasmcloud/wash into wasmcloud/wasmcloud with a separate wasmcloud-v1 repo for the v1 branch.
