We are currently in heavy planning for a TPO presence at HOPE in NYC. It's a large audience with many currently or potentially interested in the project. The TPO plans include: * some people replying to the CFP to do presentations on both technical and non-technical topics. * workshops on specific Tor topics. Topics can be large and small, but hands-on is good. Think "how do I install on an Android phone?" or "how do i teach others about Tor?" We queried for a table and "lounge" space where workshops could be held, and are awaiting more information. We are unclear when the CFP closes. At this point, a good core of TPO people will be attending, but more people means more workshops and bodies at the table. We are working out a lot of other details, including a Saturday night social event, a banner for the table, etc. We are maintaining a pad at https://pad.riseup.net/p/TorHOPEplanning Once we find out the status of the table/lounge and CFP closing, we can hold another #tor-meeting session and continue finalizing details. Input/comments requested, including more people interested in tabling, presenting or hosting a workshop. g -- 34A6 0A1F F8EF B465 866F F0C5 5D92 1FD1 ECF6 1682
