Mark your calendar for the 2014 Sacco and Vanzetti march and rally on Saturday, August 23rd.

You are invited to join us to honor the legacy of these two men murdered by Massachusetts in 1927, an act that shook the world.

In his song “A Brief History of the Orange Line” David Rovics tells the story of how activists prevented state and federal transportation officials from building an eight lane highway through Boston’s Roxbury and Jamaica Plain neighborhoods. It was 1972 when then Governor Francis Sargent finally cancelled plans for the construction.

Do you ever wish the free software was just a little bit better? As a longtime free software advocate, I certainly have had this thought many times. Sometimes nothing can be done because a particular feature is patent-encumbered, but sometimes clear user feedback is all that's needed. Enter SpinachCon -- it's a hackfest for users. The idea is that sometimes free software "has a little spinach in it's teeth" and it needs it's friends to let it know in a friendly way. People try the software, answer a few questions and get a free lunch in return.
