21:03 < igel> yea wicked | |||
21:03 < aquaticonions> thanks :) | |||
21:03 < srevilak> In agenda, Jamie wrote up a few things on pirate | |||
council responsibilities. | |||
21:04 < srevilak> I think it might be appropriate to put that off until | |||
he arrives | |||
21:04 < Bluestreak> Huzzah | |||
21:04 < srevilak> any objections? | |||
21:04 < Bluestreak> No. | |||
21:04 < Jlefty> alles gut | |||
21:04 < Bluestreak> If I may... | |||
21:04 < Bluestreak> Put it to the new officers if they would like... | |||
21:04 < Bluestreak> Cards like the rest of us have. | |||
21:05 < Bluestreak> ahoy! | |||
21:05 < js0000> el capitan! | |||
21:05 < Bluestreak> If you saw JOK’s card on the table at the con, | |||

21:05 < jokeefe> Ahoy | |||
21:05 < srevilak> Hello jokeefe | |||
21:05 < Bluestreak> OK well we can bring it up again later | |||
21:05 < Bluestreak> Hello sir! | |||
21:05 < srevilak> I'd just suggested postponing pirate council portion | |||
of agenda until you arrived. | |||
21:05 < srevilak> But, you're here now :) | |||
21:06 < Jlefty> Yes I'd love that | |||
21:06 < jokeefe> Not really here. Still at kid's concert | |||
21:06 < Bluestreak> lol | |||
21:06 < srevilak> :) | |||
21:06 < Bluestreak> Such dedication! | |||
21:06 < jokeefe> Will sign in when home. Hopefully soon | |||
21:06 < js0000> should we go onto events or ... | |||
21:06 < bestpiggy> it doesn't happen to be the at berkley is it? | |||
21:06 < aquaticonions> such respect to performers as well... | |||
21:07 < igel> 03:03 < srevilak> In agenda, Jamie wrote up a few things | |||
on pirate council responsibilities. | |||
21:07 < igel> skip | |||
21:07 < srevilak> In that case, I'd like to continue with some | |||
administrivia | |||
21:07 < srevilak> tomorrow, I'll set everyone up with a couple of accounts | |||
21:07 < aquaticonions> sounds | |||
21:07 < srevilak> masspirates.org/blog/ - wordpress (main pirate site) | |||
21:08 < aquaticonions> good | |||
21:08 < srevilak> masspirates.org/wiki/ - mediawiki. For wiki stuff | |||
21:08 < srevilak> masspirates.org/crew/ - Civicrm | |||
21:08 < Bluestreak> Jlefty was asking about that | |||
21:08 < srevilak> You'll get mail from me when your accounts are created | |||
21:08 < Bluestreak> I just made Jlefty a FB page editor. | |||
21:09 < srevilak> Unfortunately, there isn't a single login across sites. | |||
Maybe someday, but not yet | |||
21:09 < Bluestreak> If you would like to be able to post to the MPP FB | |||
page, you have to have a FB account. | |||
21:09 < Bluestreak> lol | |||
21:09 < srevilak> And Bluestreak can set you up with facebook :) | |||
21:09 < Bluestreak> remote connection | |||
21:10 < Bluestreak> Cuz srevilak don’t play dat | |||
21:10 < js0000> srevilak: account multimedia@masspirates.org ... ? | |||
21:10 < srevilak> js0000: thanks for reminder. Will set that up tomorrow | |||
as well | |||
21:10 < js0000> :-D | |||
21:11 < srevilak> until jamie gets home from kids concert, any objections | |||
to moving on to event planning? | |||
21:12 < Jlefty> go for it | |||
21:12 < aquaticonions> sounds good to me | |||
21:12 < srevilak> May 2, Point to Point Camp Cryptoparty, Cambridge - | |||
who will be at the table? | |||
21:12 < srevilak> actually, I have a rough idea who will be there | |||
21:12 < srevilak> darned cut and paste | |||
21:13 < srevilak> Being held at MIT | |||
21:13 < srevilak> Our crypto table, which is really a couple of sofas | |||
21:13 < igel> so here right | |||
https://masspirates.org/wiki/April_30th,_2015_IRC_Meeting | |||
21:13 < srevilak> igel yes | |||
21:13 < srevilak> is right outside E15-344 and E15-348 | |||
21:13 < Bluestreak> I love sitting at table but I can’t commit because | |||
I may be too beat. | |||
21:13 < aquaticonions> I can't be there, sorry | |||
21:14 < srevilak> Bluestreak: no worries. | |||
21:14 < bestpiggy> I don't think i can make it, i have a work shift i | |||
cant change. | |||
21:14 < Bluestreak> If you post when people will be there we will know | |||
where the wholes in coverage are. | |||
21:14 < srevilak> bestpiggy: no problem | |||
21:14 < igel> ok | |||
21:14 < Bluestreak> So if you can make it, saying approximately when | |||
would help. | |||
21:14 < srevilak> AFAIK, we have 5 people coming at some point during | |||
the day | |||
21:14 < aquaticonions> I'll bbe on acamping trip all weekend | |||
21:14 < Bluestreak> A lot | |||
21:15 < Bluestreak> Have fun! | |||
21:15 < Bluestreak> LOTS going on this weekend. | |||
21:15 < Bluestreak> It’s a huge weekend for cannabis activism | |||
21:15 < aquaticonions> indeed... | |||
21:15 < Bluestreak> And Vermin Supreme is having one of his parties. | |||
21:15 < Bluestreak> JK that’s not political. | |||
21:16 < js0000> lol | |||
21:16 < srevilak> I don't think there's much to plan for this weekend. | |||
That was just FYI | |||
21:16 < aquaticonions> ok | |||
21:16 < igel> rsvp eh http://ptp.camp/ | |||
21:17 < igel> which is e15, where the construction is? | |||
21:17 < srevilak> igel: 20 ames street | |||
21:17 < Jlefty> aw that looks so cool, but I'm in finals cram mode | |||
this weekend | |||
21:17 < srevilak> https://whereis.mit.edu/ | |||
21:18 < Bluestreak> It’s a haul from Amherst, too. | |||
21:18 < igel> heh ur makin me think of drones and flying things re; | |||
mit maps | |||
21:18 < Jlefty> yeah it's a haul. too bad the semseters over. I'd love | |||
to start recruiting supporters here | |||
21:19 < srevilak> Jlefty: that's actually something we've wanted to do | |||
much more of. Local chapters! | |||
21:20 < Jlefty> Umass like a fortress of potential pirates | |||
21:20 < srevilak> that would be cool | |||
21:20 < igel> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4IBXaHDcAw <-- drones | |||
and flyin things mit | |||
21:20 < Bluestreak> Jason and I have been hoping to tap that fortress | |||
for some time | |||
21:20 < aquaticonions> yeah, good idea | |||
21:20 < bestpiggy> im on the boston campus | |||
21:20 < Jlefty> Well now I have some lovely zines to leave around the | |||
library :D | |||
21:21 < bestpiggy> if that helps with anything. | |||
21:21 < srevilak> bestpiggy: my alma mater :) | |||
21:21 < aquaticonions> there are a few pirates/potential pirates at my | |||
high school | |||
21:21 < bestpiggy> :D | |||
21:22 < igel> dont take your school for granted, then heh | |||
21:22 < Bluestreak> Please do leave them lying about! | |||
21:23 < igel> yea, noam was just at umass last week or soemthing too | |||
21:23 < igel> mazing campus heh | |||
21:23 < srevilak> If you can start a group on campus, even informally, | |||
that would be great | |||
21:23 < srevilak> met a few folks from Tufts who were interested in | |||
starting a group to talk about digital rights | |||
21:24 < Jlefty> I know. But I don't think the soicial change ppl are | |||
gonna be on board, more like the tech enthusiast types | |||
21:24 < aquaticonions> still cool though | |||
21:24 < srevilak> Tech is a tool. And it can be a useful tool for | |||
helping groups working on social change | |||
21:25 < Bluestreak> We need to stress to the social change people that | |||
the tech is a necessary tool for change. | |||
21:25 < srevilak> relationship between (say) surveillance and oppression | |||
is a rather close one | |||
21:25 < igel> until you ask them if they say citizen four | |||
21:25 < Bluestreak> The tech is indimidating. Stress that we will teach | |||
them what they need to know. | |||
21:25 < aquaticonions> amen | |||
21:26 < igel> errr saw. | |||
21:26 < Bluestreak> I didn’t know shit about encryption, Tor, I could | |||
barely send COry Docotorow an email! | |||
21:26 < igel> yea, UMass knows to vote science | |||
21:26 < igel> and technology | |||
21:26 < srevilak> yes, lots of tech is like riding a bicycle. Takes a | |||
little practice, but anyone can learn | |||
21:26 < Bluestreak> Yes. | |||
21:26 < Bluestreak> Assure them that they can learn. | |||
21:26 < Bluestreak> And that we will teach them. | |||
21:26 < Jlefty> haha I actually taught myself PGP to send rick fanmail | |||
after reading his book. Never did tho | |||
21:27 < js0000> but you learned something? (i hope) | |||
21:27 < Bluestreak> Wanna be his FB friend? | |||
21:27 < Bluestreak> I will hook u up | |||
21:27 < Jlefty> Absolutely | |||
21:28 < js0000> moving on to day against drm ... ? | |||
21:28 < srevilak> js0000: probably should | |||
21:28 < srevilak> May 6, International Day against DRM Standout at Back | |||
Bay Apple Store | |||
21:28 < srevilak> FSF is organizing, we offered to participate | |||
21:28 < js0000> unfortunately, it's very unlikely that i will attend | |||
21:28 < aquaticonions> how many books does he have out? | |||
21:29 < srevilak> https://defectivebydesign.org/ | |||
21:29 < js0000> back bay apple store wed night ... | |||
21:29 < srevilak> meet at 6:15pm | |||
21:29 < srevilak> plan is to do some flyering, then get something to eat | |||
21:30 < js0000> right, fsf is also promoting social dinner event | |||
afterwards | |||
21:30 < bestpiggy> i think i make that | |||
21:30 < js0000> maybe hungry future pirates ... | |||
21:30 < aquaticonions> not me; ihave climbing in Woburn then | |||
21:30 < srevilak> Here are the logistics: | |||
https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Defective_by_Design/Day_Against_DRM_2015#USA | |||
21:31 < srevilak> Should be fun event if you can make it | |||
21:31 < srevilak> (I will be in Town Meeting that night) | |||
21:32 < aquaticonions> hey just a question | |||
21:32 < Bluestreak> Surgery next morning for me. :-( | |||
21:32 < Bluestreak> I am missing all the fun! | |||
21:32 < srevilak> Bluestreak: best wishes! | |||
21:32 < Bluestreak> ty | |||
21:32 < srevilak> aquaticonions: what's your question? | |||
21:32 < Bluestreak> yes eli? | |||
21:32 < igel> shoot | |||
21:32 < aquaticonions> i know srevilak is in Arlington town meeting, | |||
do we have other people currently in office anywhere in mass? | |||
21:33 < js0000> not yet | |||
21:33 < srevilak> We ran two candidates for state rep in last | |||
nov. election | |||
21:33 < igel> i thought someone made office in s/west mass? | |||
21:33 < igel> oh | |||
21:34 < Bluestreak> It’s not easy! | |||
21:34 < Bluestreak> There is only one Soc Alt elected official in the | |||
whole country | |||
21:34 < aquaticonions> yeah... well one person is a start anyways | |||
21:34 < Jlefty> I'd run | |||
21:34 < srevilak> aquaticonions: that's another thing we're trying to do: | |||
find people who'd like to run for office, and run | |||
21:34 < Bluestreak> Dem and Reps have a tight grip | |||
21:34 < Bluestreak> local | |||
21:34 < Bluestreak> Run local run often. | |||
21:34 < aquaticonions> indeed | |||
21:34 < Bluestreak> Joe is going to run again in the next cycle | |||
21:35 < igel> yea theres some iffy censorship from what ive heard re; | |||
ballots | |||
21:35 < srevilak> Jlefty: which office? | |||
21:35 < Jlefty> what is required to do it in terms of resources? | |||
21:35 < srevilak> Jlefty: depends on the office you're running for | |||
21:35 < aquaticonions> if i weren't a minor I'd run for something probably | |||
21:35 < srevilak> typically, there's signature gathering, and some | |||
campaigning | |||
21:35 < srevilak> local races are easier | |||
21:36 < Bluestreak> All politics is local | |||
21:36 < js0000> aquaticonions: maybe check local regs to see if age is | |||
a factor in local office | |||
21:36 < srevilak> In my case, 10 signatures and a few hours spent knocking | |||
on doors | |||
21:36 < Bluestreak> So cool. | |||
21:36 < Jlefty> idk whichever was the most disruptive! | |||
21:37 < aquaticonions> ok | |||
21:37 < igel> hmph. | |||
21:37 < Bluestreak> You need a treasurer. | |||
21:37 < srevilak> According to http://www.amherstma.gov/790/Town-Meeting | |||
21:38 < Bluestreak> A campaign chair is good too. | |||
21:38 < srevilak> amherst has town meetings. | |||
21:38 < Bluestreak> Oh… you don’t even need that! | |||
21:38 < Bluestreak> My ex was in Amherst Town meeting | |||
21:38 < Jlefty> wait guys, I fibbed. I'm actually in belchertown | |||
21:38 < Bluestreak> He got like 3 votes. | |||
21:38 < Jlefty> hampshire county. | |||
21:38 < Bluestreak> They have town meeting in Btown? | |||
21:38 < srevilak> http://www.belchertown.org/ | |||
21:38 < Jlefty> But my family and friends are her | |||
21:39 < srevilak> looks like they have town meeting too | |||
21:39 < Jlefty> yes. It's in may. It's soon! | |||
21:39 < js0000> jlefty: represent! | |||
21:39 < Bluestreak> :-) | |||
21:39 < js0000> together boston cryptoparty? | |||
21:40 < srevilak> Even if you don't run, stop by for a meeting to check | |||
out what goes on | |||
21:40 < Jlefty> So what do I do? Just raise my hand and say I wanna run | |||
for ________? | |||
21:40 < igel> town clerk, ask. | |||
21:40 < srevilak> yes, town clerk | |||
21:40 < igel> right? yea s'prob quickest. | |||
21:40 < srevilak> Also see what kind of committees your town has | |||
21:40 < Bluestreak> Yes just show up at town meeting and listen for | |||
a night. | |||
21:41 < Jlefty> I think its a once a year thing in B town | |||
21:41 < srevilak> Jlefty: that's typically how town meetings work. | |||
A couple of weeks 1x/year | |||
21:41 < js0000> just go if you can | |||
21:41 < js0000> i think that will be helpful | |||
21:41 < js0000> maybe more will come of it | |||
21:42 < js0000> together boston cryptoparty? | |||
21:42 < Bluestreak> Is that at Danger/Awesome? | |||
21:43 < srevilak> js0000: I don't know details for that event, beyond | |||
the date | |||
21:43 < js0000> that's what it says on agenda | |||
21:43 < js0000> i have been playing with PORTAL on raspberry pi | |||
21:43 < js0000> like auto tor hardware like invisibox | |||
21:43 < srevilak> js0000: could make a good demo/presentation | |||
21:43 < js0000> that's what i was thinking | |||
21:44 < js0000> but who's running it? | |||
21:44 < srevilak> js0000: jokeefe has been doing the legwork for that | |||
event | |||
21:44 < js0000> ok | |||
21:44 < js0000> we should move to next item then | |||
21:44 < aquaticonions> yeah | |||
21:44 < js0000> wait for jaimie | |||
21:45 < srevilak> I'd like to bring up 1 item for new pirate council | |||
members. | |||
21:45 < srevilak> Would be nice if we could get together for dinner | |||
or such | |||
21:45 < Bluestreak> Always. | |||
21:45 < srevilak> Probably someplace between Boston and Amherst :) | |||
21:45 < Bluestreak> My favorite part | |||
21:45 < aquaticonions> sounds like a good idea | |||
21:46 < Bluestreak> When are you thinking, srevilak? | |||
21:46 < srevilak> Bluestreak: May seems like a good month | |||
21:46 < Jlefty> Worcester seems to be a midpoint | |||
21:47 < Bluestreak> If I wasn’t facing this massive treatment I would | |||
volunteer my house. | |||
21:47 < Bluestreak> Sigh. | |||
21:47 < aquaticonions> May is pretty busy for me | |||
21:47 < Bluestreak> It’s about hour or so from Somerville/Arlington | |||
and 90 mins from Amherst/ Holyoke | |||
21:48 < Jlefty> If we have a recreational meeting, js0000 you should | |||
introduce me to the rasberry pi | |||
21:48 < srevilak> hi jokeefe | |||
21:48 < aquaticonions> ahoy | |||
21:48 < srevilak> we were just talking about local elections, and pirate | |||
council dinner | |||

21:51 < aquaticonions> btw that weekend isn't so good for me | |||
21:52 < Bluestreak> can it wait until June? | |||
21:52 < srevilak> perhaps it would be better to put together a poll | |||
for dates | |||
21:52 < aquaticonions> June would be better probably | |||
21:52 < aquaticonions> that's a good idea | |||
21:53 < igel> cheers, | |||
21:53 < igel> gtg.. | |||
21:54 < aquaticonions> bai | |||
21:54 < Bluestreak> If it’s in June, Jason and I may be able to host. | |||
21:54 < Bluestreak> Cheaper that way. | |||
21:54 < Bluestreak> And if Jason does the set up, easiet for me! | |||
21:54 < Bluestreak> I have one thing I have promised to do… at the | |||
end of June… | |||
21:55 < Bluestreak> other than that, we are wide open to entertain. | |||
21:55 < srevilak> q for the new folks: are there projects that you're | |||
interested in working on? | |||
21:55 < aquaticonions> I'll be away at the end of June anyways | |||
21:55 < Jlefty> can somebody get me up to speed with some to the tools | |||
we use here? I know etherpad, but I might as well get used to the medium | |||
21:56 < Bluestreak> We should have a tech meeting | |||
21:56 < srevilak> Jlefty: we do use either pad for a number of things. | |||
TYpically https://piratenpad.de | |||
21:56 < jokeefe> mostly piratepad/etherpad, mediawiki, wordpress, | |||
drupal/CiviCRM and IRC | |||
21:56 < Bluestreak> Like an IT meeting for people w/ questions like | |||
Jlefty ‘s | |||
21:57 < aquaticonions> that sounds good | |||
21:57 < jokeefe> ahoy noe | |||
21:57 < Bluestreak> Can be done by IRC | |||
21:57 < noe> ahoy! | |||

21:57 < aquaticonions> ahoy! | |||
21:57 < Bluestreak> AHOY | |||

21:57 < Bluestreak> USPP was never able to get IT meetings off the ground | |||
21:57 < Bluestreak> Let’s show them how it is done. | |||
21:58 < Jlefty> maybe an etherpad type forum. That way ppl could check | |||
21:58 < Bluestreak> jokeefe! | |||
21:58 < Bluestreak> We have been waiting for a thing | |||
21:58 < Jlefty> Like a tech support pad for PirateNewbz | |||
21:58 < Bluestreak> That srevilak wanted you to be here for. | |||
21:58 < aquaticonions> yes | |||
21:58 < Bluestreak> Can we talk about this now before we run out of time? | |||

Pirate Council Responsibilities
Not set in stone. See Swarmwise for better ideas. Its summary:
PR/media leader: responsible for interactions with oldmedia (newspapers, television, radio, etc.) at his or her particular geography. That includes sending press releases, making sure press kits with information are available, and other things related to serving oldmedia with information about the swarm and its activities. (See Chapter 9)
Activism leader: does not lead activism as such, but rather support it (as is the case with all of these roles). Whenever activists decide swarmwise that they want to stage a rally, hand out flyers, put up posters, or do some other form of visible activism, this is the person responsible for the practical details, such as PA equipment, permits, and other details on the ground to make things happen.
Swarmcare leader: welcomes new activists into the swarm and continually measure the overall health of it. A typical task would be to call new activists just to make them feel welcome, and tell them when the next events — social as well as operational — take place. This is more than enough for one person to chew.
Information-and-web leader: is the person who maintains the infrastructure of a blog or other web page that summarizes the relevant information of the swarm in this particular geography. (This person also communicates internally when events, such as rallies, happen. The swarm decides when and if they happen; it is the job of this person to communicate the consensus.)
Administrative

That was just FYI 21:16 < aquaticonions> ok 21:16 < igel> rsvp eh http://ptp.camp/ 21:17 < igel> which is e15, where the construction is? 21:17 < srevilak> igel: 20 ames street 21:17 < Jlefty> aw that looks so cool, but I'm in finals cram mode this weekend 21:17 < srevilak> https://whereis.mit.edu/ 21:18 < Bluestreak> It’s a haul from Amherst, too. 21:18 < igel> heh ur makin me think of drones and flying things re; mit maps 21:18 < Jlefty> yeah it's a haul. too bad the semseters over.

But I don't think the soicial change ppl are gonna be on board, more like the tech enthusiast types 21:24 < aquaticonions> still cool though 21:24 < srevilak> Tech is a tool. And it can be a useful tool for helping groups working on social change 21:25 < Bluestreak> We need to stress to the social change people that the tech is a necessary tool for change. 21:25 < srevilak> relationship between (say) surveillance and oppression is a rather close one 21:25 < igel> until you ask them if they say citizen four 21:25 < Bluestreak> The tech is indimidating. Stress that we will teach them what they need to know. 21:25 < aquaticonions> amen 21:26 < igel> errr saw. 21:26 < Bluestreak> I didn’t know shit about encryption, Tor, I could barely send COry Docotorow an email! 21:26 < igel> yea, UMass knows to vote science 21:26 < igel> and technology 21:26 < srevilak> yes, lots of tech is like riding a bicycle. Takes a little practice, but anyone can learn 21:26 < Bluestreak> Yes. 21:26 < Bluestreak> Assure them that they can learn. 21:26 < Bluestreak> And that we will teach them. 21:26 < Jlefty> haha I actually taught myself PGP to send rick fanmail after reading his book.
