Summary

Reviewed plans for Saturday's Cryptoparty at SPL.

We vote on electing Noe as our new first officer. Five in favor. No opposed. Motion passes. Welcome first officer Noe.

Worcester meeting. Via poll, Jan 24th was most popular date. We'll close voting at 11:59 PM Tuesday night.

PirateCon 2015 site location. Steve needs to contact community church of Boston re: rates. Noe to contact General Assembly. Right now, we want rates for a Saturday 10-6 and 10-10, with 30 minutes on either side for setup/cleanup.

Events with registration fees: Pride, Freedom rally. Perhaps run these as fundraising campaigns? (i.e., fundraise, with specific goal of funding registration)
