There will be a FOSDEM viewing party in Dorchester from 9:00 to 13:00 on Saturday Jan 31. They will be focused on the Social Web track, as it's hosted by the Boston ATProto (Bluesky protocol) meet up.

I'll be there.

Nice! I added it to my calendar at least! I went to FOSDEM in 2020 (and gave a talk).

Shoot, I might need to miss this. My daughter left some ski gear near Manchester, NH and my wife and I are planning on driving up that day to pick it up (and hopefully ski or at least snowshoe).

Ah dang. Well in the unlikely case I happen to make my way to that area myself in the next week I'll let you know. Maybe we could save a trip.

Oh you wanted to ski, I see. Nevermind. Yeah I am tentatively planning to snowboard with some friends the day after, if the conditions are good.

I feel sad that I didn't bring my laptop.

Caught the tail end of Christine Webber talking about Spritely.

I brought my leftover Club Mate from my CCC watch party. I got a couple takers.

There was a talk on Bonfire, which I saw come up on Hacker News. It's a fediverse application, or perhaps application suite. If I understand right it has a lot of the features of the different things all in one. Microblogs, blogs, events.

I was chatting with someone about perhaps making a local Boston one for Boston area FOSS meetups. Would be cool to migrate our account there.

And then if we're all on the fediverse we can get better cross pollination perhaps.
