'''ANNOUNCEMENT:''' Our Next meeting will Feb 1st. There is no meeting on
Wed. Jan 25th.

(The note taker arrived ~ 30 minutes into the meeting. At this point,
the group was having an informal individual stack. Below are several
comments and discussion points that came from individual stack.)

* As a group, we should try to balance planning for an ongoing
community meeting agenda, and continuing to gather discussion
points.

* Pablo set up a web site for entering, classifying, and tagging
concerns: http://montera34.org/occupybostonideas. It's pretty
neat, and each of us should take a look at it.

* We'll need to propose some form of structure in order to get people
interested in community meetings.

* Town halls and outreach are important. We should take Jeff's list
of contacts, and start making contact with these organizations.

* We agreed to start meeting every other week. This will give
individuals time to organize and work on their own outreach
efforts.

* We had a volunteer to clean up/reorganize the Ideas working group
wiki page. This should happen Friday night.

* We'd like to publish some of our materials on the ideas working
group section of wiki.occupyboston.org. These resources would
include our outreach letter, categorized list of concerns, and
perhaps Jeff's list of community orgs/community leaders.

* A new working group met tonight; they're called "grow the
movement". This group came out of Sunday night's action assembly.
Grow the movement's mission is similar to ours. We may collaborate
with them. On the other hand, having several groups doing outreach
might be a good thing. Grow the movement is meeting right now, and
they're talking about the practice of resource mapping.

* Kudos on the outreach letter. Perhaps it could give a more
explicit reason for why community orgs should get involved with the
ideas working group/Occupy Boston. But it's good enough to send
as-is.

* Ideas would like to pursue some common goals with the outreach WG.
We really need to think about having a spokes council. Several
Occupy Boston working groups are all doing similar things.

* Several groups are trying to bring voices into the occupy
movement. What makes the Ideas group distinct? Collect and
reflect seems to be our core strategy.

* We could try to make some connections at the Citizens United events
taking place this weekend.

* Our next meeting will take place on 2/1/2012, which is two weeks
from today. We discussed a proposal from a few weeks ago --
changing the name of the Ideas working group. Try to think of
names for the next meeting.

* Several people were planning to work on outreach projects,
flyering, or a combination of the two. Two individuals felt
inexperienced in doing outreach, but wanted to work with others as
+1's.
