So additional info, even if I can make it to the meeting it's much text, coming from a conversation this with lynX:
PSYC (psyced.org) features useful for this project: - has scalable banlists - you technically can't send private messages to strangers: you first need to friendship each other, before that every user has a default filter where strangers can't stalk them or harass them via priv msg. - you can set requirements for joining users like "registered" and "encrypted" -- however, if somebody automates the registering process there are no tools to handle this yet (also see below) but can/will be written then. in a sense if a massive 4chan attack (or even small regular attacks) happen it would be more than a stress test - you can have a 2 step system (ask lynX about that one): -- example: new user joins, gets into archwomen-welcome. when they are no spammer or otherwise toxic person they get invited into archwomen (which could be invite only, invisible from listing). in the long run, this could be too annoying for 4chan.
If problems occur, it's a challenge to accept and tune psycd, as long as it can improve psycd it's good for all who use psyc. On the other hand - if problems hit an problematic point (more work than people can handle) there are features which are restricted to psyc admins - run your own instance -, like only admins see IP numbers of users, nobody else. so you can block the IP numbers (did lynX mean block in iptables or in psyc? i don't know anymore, contact him if you need to know) of spammers.
Although I grew tired of IRC, I will try to make it to the next meeting.
tigrmesh: I really like your proposal. It's been added to the agenda for the next meeting. I hope you'll be able to come. -t

Hi,
I am unsure if I can be around for the next meeting. In addition to other issues and things which keep me busy, I have not written that much or productive.
On public relations, so far I contacted one person who's giving Linux courses / lessons. They subscribed to this list and also said it's a nice project and they will point people to / tell them about it next time.
On what I collected so far, this is all I got, I hope some of it can be helpful. In addition to the mentioned notes, I will setup an general and maybe an tech related things channel for lgbtiq* community on psyced.org soon to test if people start using it more.

provide suggestions/ideas for Organization ==========================================
General Ideas for Organization: --------------
- use of liquid democracy tools like Adhocracy_ and LiquidFeedback_ for votings etc? Adhocracy_: https://github.com/liqd/adhocracy/ LiquidFeedback_: http://liquidfeedback.org/
- PSYC channel instead of (or an addition to) freenode IRC. If you have questions on PSYC, feel free to ask me. In my opinion from usage, there's not a huge learning curve and it has support for multicast, meaning you can use irc, xmpp, psyc clients to communicate.
General Ideas about Website: --------------
