### Notes

#### **PR**: [#91 feat: feat(git): add support for :: in #committish](https://github.com/npm/npm-package-arg/pull/91) - @wraithgar
- @wraithgar
- this was an old item we never got to
- allows for support of reference patsh in git repos (good for monorepos)

#### **Issue**: [#519 BREAKING CHANGE(engines): engines support for npm9](https://github.com/npm/statusboard/issues/519) - @lukekarrys
- @lukekarrys
- want to reevalute our Node/engines support
- odd versions seem like outliers to the current strategy
- @wraithgar
- difference between engines vs. support
- engines is meant for "this should work in here"
- @ljharb
- should use @pkgjs/support create work
- @darcyclarke
- https://github.com/npm/cli/wiki/Support-Policy
- Node needs to update their dependencies
- we only "support" the latest version of `npm`

#### **PR**: [#5000 feat: add npm query cmd](https://github.com/npm/cli/pull/5000) - @ruyadorno
- @wraithgar
- is taking over the work, will have updates by next week

#### **PR**: [#595 Propose backwards-compatible improvements to compression](https://github.com/npm/rfcs/pull/595) - @EvanHahn
- @fritzy
- @EvanHan is still investigating this

#### **PR**: [#593 Only Registry Tarballs](https://github.com/npm/rfcs/pull/593) - @thescientist13
- @thescientist13
- has made several updates from discussions/feedback (ref. https://github.com/npm/rfcs/pull/593#issuecomment-1160553640)
- would like to discuss naming of flag again (ref. `--only-registry-deps` vs. current `--only-non-remote-deps`)
- should we hold off until `npm query` is available?
