			Malt has found a group in Worcester asking us to potentially lead some FOSS tutorials. Perhaps:
			* how to do basic labels in GIMP,
			* work through a few sample spreadsheets related to seed cost and
			* similarly applicable real-world situations, depending on the needs of the group.

			He will write up a blog post/email anc.

New page

== Review ==

* South Boston BPL cryptoparty

== Decisions/Endorsements ==

Discussion of future events:

"In selecting actions I sought out ones with funding or established groups in order to minimize our workload. Incidentally these also will get us interacting with and assisting community groups.

I'm getting a positive, enthusiastic response from the DIY agriculture groups in Worcester, especially regarding talks or classroom presentations. I would like to get a feel for the groups' enthusiasm and expertise, if each of us had to lead a presentation, what would you focus on? Even if it isn't directly agricultural, open source software can be off-putting to new users.

Going off of agriculture, I learned that the New England Grassroots Activism Fund is funding the creation of permaculture installations. These are collections of mostly native plants engineered to be drought resistant and pollinator friendly. We could potentially spearhead an installation at a local library or school, or a retirement home or public housing block. Do we want to get our hands dirty?

Lastly, there's a few models of "repair salon" actions where experts bring tools and locals bring damaged or malfunctioning equipment (computers or light hardware) to get repaired instead of thrown out. I know someone running a program in Northampton who might appreciate our logistical support, in exchange for a chance to talk to folk outside Boston. "
