Notes for October 27 2016 meeting:

Alison: 1) Not much to report this week: working on membership docs, doing lots of trainings around New England, USA

Roger: 1) It looks like we're moving forward on a preliminary NSF proposal to work on a plan for a live testing Tor network, which can help answer more realistic research questions than tools like Chutney or Shadow can answer. If we do it we'll be submitting it within a week. Cass is in the loop. 2) Reminder that I'll be offline from Nov 3 through Nov 11ish.

Kate: 1) Coordinating a few blog posts 2) Networking with colleagues in other NGOS (best practices, etc.) 3) Stillll following up with major stories in the offing (that have been going forever). 4) Not much else this week (was sick for a couple days earlier)

Arturo: 1) Got the thread for the UX design hire started 2) Publishing a report on censorship in Egypt that includes some analysis of how they are blocking Tor: https://ooni.torproject.org/post/egypt-network-interference/ 3) Published announcement of the Hackthon in Berlin (seems like the metrics team is also there during those days, yay!) https://ooni.torproject.org/post/berlin-hackathon-2016/
