Summary
Aaron James Campaign Update. Aaron was on the Young Jurks this past Saturday. More canvassing this Saturday. Another campaign event on 8/30 @ Somerville Armory (6p-9:30p)
Cryptoparty. Jamie and Ben are doing a cryptoparty at the BPL in Dorchester on Saturday.
Ballot Measures. https://ballotpedia.org/Massachusetts_2016_ballot_measures. Plan to review the ballot questions during the week. We'll try to form a party position next week. A place to draft positions: http://piratepad.net/r7PEC7Winx
CCTV mapping. FFTF might be interested in collaborating on what we've done with https://cctv.masspirates.org. Probably best for Jamie and JTIII to discuss collaboration parameters.
Pirate podcasts. Steve had to miss a week; FOIA for fun and Liberation will go up next weekend. Noe has video, but hasn't had the chance to do any editing.
Running for local office. Democracy center reserved for Nov 12, 12:30p - 5:00pm. Perhaps another one in springfield, and/or Amherst
