+1, bill!
I've been meaning to send a callout to see if anyone's up for participating
in a rotating cryptoparty facilitation crew. Happy to advise on my
experience co-facilitating them for about 2 years, and provide our handouts
and materials, but I no longer have the capacity to facilitate them
regularly.

Although I'm generally in favor of giving
crypto-parties, I'm not in favor
of helping RSA conference with anything. There has been widespread outrage
in the crypto community at RSA (the org who runs the conference), who it
was revealed in March last year was paid $10million by the NSA to
prioritize the Dual_EC_DRBG random number generator in their BSAFE crypto
library. Dual_EC_DRBG was analysed by the crypto community and found to be
unsafe and possibly even backdoored.
So in short, I'm opposed to organizing anything with RSA and discourage
anyone from doing the same on ethical grounds.

Hello
My name is Camden Murtagh and I am with the RSA Conference, the leading
global conference in everything cyber security. It is a 5 day conference
held in San Francisco around the end of February where the leaders of the
industry come to discuss the current state of Cyber Security. I am
looking
to put on a Cryptoparty during one of the nights
of the conference and
after looking over your website I was wondering if you guys feel you'd be
equipped and or interested in hosting a cryptoparty at the conference. If
not would you be able to point me in the direction of someone who would
be
able to help me out.
Thank you for your time.
- Camden
