21:16 <@jokeefe> Regional Meetings/Events
21:16 <@jokeefe> Surveillance Mapping event registration forms are up
21:17 < Malt> Woohoo!
21:18 <@jokeefe> Looks like there are more iOS apps than I thought:
      https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Comparison_of_iOS_applications
21:19 <@jokeefe> And Android:
      https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Android_applications
21:20 <@jokeefe> I can check the iOS apps and see if there is one as
      good as Pushpin OSM - which is no longer supported
21:20 <@jokeefe> apps, if they work, are easier than paper
21:21 < Malt> Truth
21:21 < Malt> Could we use geotagged photos?
21:21 < Malt> Like, can we access that data on a mobile.photo
21:21 <@jokeefe> Maybe. Haven’t tried that.
21:22 <@jokeefe> BINJ suggested that -
      https://medium.com/binj-reports/binjbrother-c1bec615a026#.avwuyfswx
21:22 <@jokeefe> I found apps easier, personally
21:22 < Malt> It'd make it the most accessible
21:23 <@jokeefe> 5 years since they started that.
21:24 < Malt> I trust your expertise
21:24 <@jokeefe> thanks
21:24 <@jokeefe> Party Conference survey is up

21:28 <@jokeefe> Got an offer of old wifi networking hardware
21:28 < Joe> Could we convert it to a mesh net?
21:29 <@jokeefe> possibly. will check with the donor
21:29 < Malt> That's be cool
21:30 < Joe> Maybe then use it to set up a permanent mesh in the city
      of Boston.  I would be happy to reach out to some members on the board
      if that's the case.
21:31 < Joe> *City Council.  If they don't bite perhaps Lowell or
      Somerville will.
21:31 < Malt> Or a school demo.
21:31 <@jokeefe> It is from massmesh folks so odds are possibly
21:32 < Joe> Actually....
21:33 <@jokeefe> yes?
21:33 < Malt> ?
21:33 < Joe> With so many kids out of school, I may be able to reach
      someone on a local school committee to get this set up. Kids that don't
      have internet but are sent home a device to do school work would have
      to put themselves at greater risk.
21:34 < Joe> We could connect the dots for Massmesh and school committees
      across MA.
21:34 < Malt> Huh
21:34 <@jokeefe> will find out more
21:34 < Joe> So a lot of schools are doing a hybrid program and sending
      tablets, etc home.
21:34 < Malt> Setup social distanced supervised education hubs in old
      restaurants
21:34 < Joe> What if that student does not have internet?
21:35 < Joe> Or Massmesh?
21:35 < Malt> A roller rink is trying that
21:35 <@jokeefe> oh cool
21:36 <@jokeefe> that is all I have
21:37 < Malt> Same
21:37 < Joe> Please let me know what Massmesh says.
21:38 <@jokeefe> will do
21:38 < Joe> Motion to adjourn?
