resources:
Boston Indymedia is already in preparation to assist organizing and to cover the Democratic National Convention, held in Boston this July.  Several of the mailing lists for organizing working groups have been formed, and we\'ve confirmed hosting space of the Buffalo IMC server, Dissent, which currently hosts the Boston IMC website as well as many other IMC websites in New England and the nation.

outreach:
In addition to already working as an IMC collective to prepare for this event, members of the Boston team have attended meetings of other affinity groups in the area. Individuals from our community and activists from around the nation having inquired about information about this event, as well as contact for other local groups, housing, transportation, etc.  This in mind, we will dedicate a large portion of the website will focus on the efforts of local groups converging against the DNC.

introductory_statement:
Originally intended placing a focus on the DNC within our existing website, the Boston IMC tech team considered it would be both better managed and better archived to create a separate website that could be used in the future for other local IMCs to plan protests against in future conventions, wherever they should take place.
