People of Earth, heed my call! Based on feedback that Boisterous Otters has too much to do, and on the fact that current Boisterous meetings are using their full time on only half the topics, we're splitting Boisterous into two components. The first component is going to stick with the name Boisterous, and deals with the first two activities: the helpdesk, and l10n. If you're already working on these things, nothing is changing for you, and you may be able to stop reading this right here. The second component is picking up the name **Buoyant**, and will deal with the remaining activities: * written materials on general communications security * short videos multi-language training videos * outreach to Iranians and the Iranian diaspora * social-media, radio, and television outreach. * training, and train-the-trainer work If that sounds like your cup of tea, kettle of fish, or flagon of ale, then you should come help us get started by filling in this [Doodle][] **by Wednesday afternoon** so that I can plan a meeting at the end of this week or the beginning of next. Please fill out the Doodle if you're definitely coming, and plan to be part of the core effort. If you just want to show up to spectate or lend a hand, there's no RSVP needed. I plan to look at the Doodle around 1700-1900h Pacific tomorrow, and I'll use whatever it says then to try and pick the best time. I'll send the time out to tor-dev, bcc-ing everyone who's expressed an interest or answered the poll. That's 24 hours to give me your availability, but only about 16 hours between when I send out the time and the first possible meeting slot, so check your mail tomorrow evening Pacific. If you have any specific suggestions about venue, format, or other running *of the meeting*, and you plan to be there, please reply publicly or privately before I send out the scheduling meeting. If you have specific plans about how to git'er done, you can either email me, or bcc me on a tor-dev-bound email with an appropriately-ottery subject line. Do note, however, that other folks may not be able to read your suggestions if you send them less than 12 hours before the meeting. I'll try to read them anyway, but that's only out of the kindness of my heart. Questions on a postcard please, -Tom [Doodle]: http://doodle.com/pm5cfunbcwuyrwh6
