[Discuss] Fwd: Boston Linux and Unix InstallFest LXV Saturday October 7, 2017



Personally, I don't think the cops are going to start giving out tickets on
a mostly empty lot. The parking change came when people with valid Hayward
parking permits could not park at E-51. If I remember correctly there is
free parking on Memorial drive. There is also garage parking at 1 Memorial
Drive (NERD center). Because of construction the metered parking on Amherst
St is not available.
