[10:04pm] bosun: Ids please
[10:04pm] Pirate_Joe: Joseph Onoroski, Massachusetts
[10:04pm] Sayyida: Megan Klein, vice chair
[10:04pm] Poet: Silas Tippens, Webmaster
[10:05pm] jokeefe: James O’Keefe, secretary
[10:05pm] bosun: Joe Klein Chair
[10:05pm] Pirate_Joe: *Treasurer
[10:06pm] bosun: Intense pressure to get things done.
[10:07pm] jokeefe: what’s the agenda?
[10:08pm] bosun: Reports on  what we need to finish.
[10:08pm] jokeefe: I updated the email aliases to remove people who shouldn’t be on them and add those who should be
[10:09pm] bosun: Good.
[10:09pm] jokeefe: I looked at the status of the plugins of the blog to see if we need to update any
[10:09pm] bosun: Do we?
[10:10pm] jokeefe: It would be good to have someone monitor the comments and respond to them
[10:10pm] bosun: That I should do.
[10:10pm] jokeefe: Its complicated, bosun, but all will be good soon.
[10:11pm] jokeefe: just patch level updates. nothing radically out of date.
[10:12pm] jokeefe: Site it backed up
[10:12pm] jokeefe: db and files
[10:12pm] jokeefe: Poet and I had some comms issues, but we have resolved them and will get going
[10:13pm] jokeefe: I still owe you passwords
[10:13pm] bosun: The CIVICRM overhaul should put us on composer for the Drupal/CIVICRM updates. Once done updates become simple. Getting there is the difficult part.
[10:14pm] jokeefe: MAPP did it recently. I can point you to the person who did it if that helps
[10:15pm] bosun: OK email me the contact info.
[10:15pm] jokeefe: BTW: https://www.youtube.com/user/FREIFUNK2013 posts a lot of their conference sessions on mesh networking. Like HOPE and CCC
[10:15pm] jokeefe: We need a more secure method than plain text email
[10:16pm] jokeefe: sorry wrong topic
[10:16pm] jokeefe: will do
[10:16pm] jokeefe: State organizer on-line gathering - reached out the NH contact. He emailed us. Did you all get it?
[10:17pm] Pirate_Joe: I can personally vouch that Max is very smart and on top of the issues at hand.  He has done a lot already in NH for our cause.
[10:18pm] Pirate_Joe: Plus he also runs a discord server which would be useful for streaming videos if you are interested.
[10:19pm] bosun: OK Then he should show up for our meetings.
[10:19pm] bosun: He knows when they are?
[10:21pm] jokeefe: Mentioned on twitter, IIRC, but and invite from the Chair would be a good thing
[10:21pm] bosun: OK - I will ask.
[10:21pm] jokeefe: Thanks
[10:22pm] jokeefe: I wanted to see how we can post on the blog, Facebook and Twitter more
[10:23pm] Sayyida: jokeefe: what do you mean how?
[10:23pm] jokeefe: How can we do it more often
[10:23pm] Sayyida: like are we using a differnt app or a new app?
[10:24pm] Sayyida: OHHH gotcha
[10:24pm] jokeefe: For me blog posts should be the priority, but Twitter/FB is so easy to share other people’s articles
[10:25pm] Sayyida: that is true
[10:25pm] Sayyida: what kind of blogging are we aiming for?
[10:25pm] Sayyida: like subject
[10:25pm] Sayyida: we are 5 min out on the end of time by the way
[10:26pm] bosun: OK sent him an invite.
[10:26pm] Sayyida: jokeefe: i understand we would need to discuss latest issus reguarding our focal subjects, but what else?
[10:27pm] Sayyida: issues*
[10:27pm] jokeefe: Giving our perspective on current issues is a good start
[10:27pm] jokeefe: Something so the site looks active.
[10:27pm] jokeefe: once or twice a week would be good
[10:28pm] Pirate_Joe: Everyday would be amazing.
[10:28pm] jokeefe: Not even sure the Czech pirates do that
[10:29pm] bosun: You want content. How about we each pick a day and post something once a week?
[10:29pm] Pirate_Joe: Perhaps each state?
[10:30pm] bosun: I'll take Tuesday.
[10:30pm] jokeefe: That is fine, but someone should check up and make sure it happens
[10:30pm] jokeefe: not doing, getting others to do.
[10:31pm] Sayyida: I'm good whenever. I can probably take whenever as often. I finally have a "schedule" and a capable brain
[10:31pm] bosun: Megan will keelhaul me if I fail.
[10:31pm] jokeefe: lol
[10:32pm] Sayyida: remember everyone, he said I would, not me!! haha
[10:32pm] jokeefe: I’ll aim for Thursdays
[10:32pm] bosun: That's the ticket
[10:32pm] jokeefe: Anything else to discuss?
[10:32pm] Pirate_Joe: Unfortunately, my plate is a bit full atm, so I will have to abstain for now.
[10:33pm] bosun: We are out of time.
[10:33pm] Pirate_Joe: Motion to Adjourn?
[10:33pm] jokeefe: 2nd
[10:33pm] jokeefe: Pirate_Joe: you have videos to organize
[10:33pm] bosun: OK hearing no objection
[10:33pm] jokeefe: I’ll post the notes
[10:34pm] bosun: Thank you.
