Decisions/Endorsements

RI Trade Event Friday

The Nat. Gov. Assoc. is convening a meeting of governors from the US, Mexico, and Canada – about trade – on July 12-15. The meeting will take place RI.

A national group is working on an action for Friday, July 14 at 2:30pm and would like our help in promoting it.

Pirate Picnic

We normally have a picnic on Georges Island in August. Suggest moving it to Boston Common and using it as an opportunity for people to learn how to map CCTV Surveillance cameras and map a lot of cameras in downtown Boston.

Projects

FOSS Tutorials

Worcester farm group is interested in having some FOSS tutorials. Perhaps:
