Decisions/Endorsements

FftF proposed social media legislation

Email asking supporters to review FftF's draft social media legislation has not gone out yet. Request we review it next week.

Table at TBR's Juneteenth celebration

The Black Response will hold their Juneteenth celebration on Friday, June 19. This year marks their second annual family-friendly Juneteenth event. It runs from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Cambridge Commons in Harvard Square in Cambridge. They asked if we would like a table. Each tabling organization will be provided with one table, one tablecloth, and two chairs. It is a day before the Boxborough Fifers Day.

BSides Boston

BSides Boston will be October 25, 2026 in Somerville. It is a community-organized 1-day hacker conference. Details

The organizers are interested holding a cryptoparty during the social hour from noon to 1:30pm. We talked about doing it last year, but were not able to do so due to other events. Should we commit to running one this year?
