July 13th Meeting
* srevilak updated blog theme. jokeefe and srevilak corrected any items that were wrong as a result of the update;
* jokeefe updated [https://discuss.masspirates.org/riot/#/welcome our Riot/Matrix client] to the latest stable version. Started work on a splash page for discuss.masspirates.org.
* srevilak & jokeefe tested camera / microphone setup and figured out that the reason the recording was so soft in the video we took at the Pirate Planning Picnic was that the speakers were too far away from the microphones.

jokeefe noticed that [https://cctv.masspirates.org our CCTV camera map] no longer shows the locations of cameras. Fixed.

Next meeting will be August 10th. Topics are:

* find discussion/voting system;
* update CCTV cameras to include older cameras outside North America we didn't include;
* write an app to record the location/ownership of CCTV cameras;
* set up torrents for PirateCon videos (creynolds);
* post remaining audio for PirateCon talks (srevilak).
