[9:27pm] Plantzz_: sorry new to this all here, but if someone could briefly explain what the signatures are for that'd be awesome! [9:27pm] jokeefe: so, Plantzz_, lgel and step are in the Somerville area ….

[9:29pm] jokeefe: which means you need ~300 raw signatures, though we have had a better validity rate [9:29pm] noe: There are other limitations, and I usually discuss them in person with interested volunteers [9:30pm] Igel left the chat room.

[9:35pm] noe: I'm assuming that we have no more info from Joe's campaign right now since they're not here.

[9:36pm] jokeefe: On to PAX Cryptoparty [9:36pm] jokeefe: we need to pick a location [9:37pm] jokeefe: though probably that might just be me [9:37pm] srevilak: jokeefe: there's a common area in the conference, no? [9:37pm] jokeefe: several yes, trying to get the link for the map [9:38pm] noe: bcec is quite far away from anything else [9:38pm] srevilak: I'll be able to make it. At least for a couple hours [9:38pm] noe: I recommend finding an area within it, other venues are hard to get to/hard to have a group of people in [9:39pm] jokeefe: got it - http://massconvention.com/assets/pdf/floorplans/BCEC_Floorplans__Capacities_Meeting_Level_1.pdf [9:40pm] jokeefe: NE Lobby A or SE Lobby B2 areas were best [9:41pm] jokeefe: The other side tends to be near the food so is really busy [9:41pm] jokeefe: the upper floors have less space, though the lower floor registration area is a possibility [9:41pm] srevilak: I've only walked through North lobby, so I don't have any good input to offer [9:42pm] noe: I'd say pick one and plant a flag (not a real flag) [9:42pm] jokeefe: Got any time to do a walk through, assuming we can get in? [9:43pm] jokeefe: Probably SE Lobby then, noe [9:43pm] noe: SE is good, then. How are we publicizing? [9:43pm] jokeefe: blog post, FB/Twitter/Email, then fliers at PAX possibly [9:44pm] jokeefe: that and a banner at it [9:44pm] srevilak: have we decided on a time? [9:45pm] jokeefe: doors open 10am [9:45pm] jokeefe: things get less crazy after that [9:45pm] jokeefe: I suggest noon [9:45pm] srevilak: how about starting right before conference lunch break? [9:46pm] jokeefe: here is the schedule - there is no lunch break - http://east.paxsite.com/schedule [9:46pm] jokeefe: 72,000 people cannot have a lunch break at the same time [9:47pm] jokeefe: do we want to setup a pirate wifi to get people the software? [9:48pm] noe: that sounds like a cool idea. who would be in charge of that? [9:48pm] srevilak: I have a spare WAP -- could bring it [9:49pm] srevilak: I assume this would be a small isolated network, not connected to internet [9:49pm] srevilak: correct? [9:49pm] noe: i think that would be safest and easiest [9:50pm] srevilak: if that's the case, I can set up downloads via http server on my laptop [9:50pm] srevilak: pretty easy to do [9:50pm] jokeefe: yes, not connected to their wifi [9:50pm] jokeefe: Might want to name it NSA Honeypot or something like that [9:50pm] jokeefe: then people might start asking around about it [9:51pm] srevilak: Will give it some thought [9:51pm] jokeefe: Or could be Pirate Party, too [9:51pm] srevilak: I'll take care of wireless [9:52pm] noe: Any other logistics for PAX Cryptoparty? [9:52pm] jokeefe: great, done with that [9:52pm] jokeefe: Tech Issues [9:52pm] srevilak: I'd like to work on a fundraiser flyer, so we have some to hand out [9:52pm] jokeefe: srevilak - any luck with CiviCRM [9:53pm] srevilak: jokeefe: haven't had a chance to work on it during the last few days.

[9:56pm] noe: (could you imagine if we tried to rent a physical room for our weekly meetings? O_o) [9:56pm] jokeefe: $10-30/mtg [9:57pm] srevilak: we'd have to cover it with hat passing [9:57pm] jokeefe: as long as we account for it [9:57pm] jokeefe: We skipped - Waves of Action Boston - https://www.facebook.com/groups/waveofactionboston/ [9:58pm] srevilak: can someone summarize?
