Summary

Planning for 2/17 protest. We'd like to issue a press release 1--2 weeks before, and approach media. Terminal E (International Arrivals) at Logan Airport. For now, planning on 1-3pm. Plan on wearing suits/nice attire. Low-key protest. Draft flyer copy: https://piratenpad.de/bpXgvjgG1N. js0000 to work on flyer. srevilak to work on press release.

Bitpay. Account set up, but they only take email address of donors. We'll need to do something in order to collect additional political donation information that we need. Perhaps wordpress's Visual Form Builder plugin.

Nationbuilder. Jokeefe has done some trial work. srevilak liked the way it was easy to create campaign-specific sites. js0000 will give it a try.

Pirate Conference. We discuss having the conference in September. Students will be back. We'll have time to focus on elections, and time to plan the conference.
