United States of Lubavitch in Boston
Readers of mentalblog.com comment to Marc Oster vs. New England Hebrew Academy:

Rabbi Haim Prus had to get permission from Rabbi Chaim Ciment to go to Boston on Shlichut, however R. Prus feels that since he opened up the first Chabad HOUSE he is the Head Shliach, but he got into a fight with Rabbi Yudel Krinsky so he is definitely not recognized as Head Shliach.
Rabbi Mendy Uminer of Chesnut Hill.
Lubavitcher Bochur writes:
Rabbi Chaim Ciment was sent by the Frierdiker Rebbe.
Rabbi Chaim Prus was sent by the Rebbe, but because of fight with Yudel, he is off the list, and he opened up a new center in Newton (Recently, Krinsky sent R. Moishe Lieberman to open an "official" Chabad House in Newton)
Rabbi Shayke Lerner (TA note: R. Chaim Prus� son in law) was sent by Chaim Prus to Brookline (and recently Krinsky sent Mayshe Schwartz to open an "official" Chabad House in Brookline. (TA note, I heard that Mayshe is the son of he famous BT Shliyah from CA, long persecuted by S. Cunin)
Rabbi Rachmiel Lieberman opened up a "Congregation Lubavitch" in Chestnut Hill, and he was never approved by any authority (he also runs a Hechsher).
There was a Lubavitcher Yeshiva in Boston, but because of Machlokes between Lieberman & Mintz it didnt last.
And lest we forget, that Zalman Schechter was also a Shliach in Boston in the 1950's.
A view of the tens(!) of Mosdos surrounding Boston. (Note that the list conspicuously omits R. Shayke Lerner, photographed below and R. Chaim Prus)
(I took both picutres of Shayke and Mendy at Matisyahu concert in New Jew)
