Summary

Chelsea Manning standout. Good event, despite the cold and rainy weather. Steve and Jamie both spoke. We were able to drum up some interest for the 12/28 cryptoparty.

Havard Library Cryptoparty. The organizers set up a series of stations, and participants could move around between them. Might be nice to try this at one of our cryptoparties.

Local surveillance ordinances. Steve gave update on status of Arlington effort. Also a possibility for doing something in Somerville.

MAAPL Fight Foreclosure Campaign. Jamie did email distribution, re: recent efforts. MAAPL is currently running fight foreclosure clinics.

Local Organizing. G and Jamie working on local organizing efforts.

First night against the wars, Dec 31st, noon-5p, Copley Square.
