Narrative:

Aircraft #1 was receiving advisories from ZBW at 13500 ft. Aircraft #2 was receiving advisories from Y90 (bradley approach) at 4500 ft. Aircraft #1 called 1 min prior to jump, ZBW failed to advise Y90 and aircraft #2 called 1 min prior. Aircraft #1 and #2 have no frequency to talk to each other. Aircraft #1 releases jumpers right on top of aircraft #2. Aircraft #2 advises Y90 he is moving out of the way because he sees canopies opening above him. This is a dangerous situation. Luckily, nobody died. The aircraft jumping at the same airport should have a dedicated frequency to coordinate jumps. ZBW needs new rules in regards to their responsibility to VFR aircraft. They never called for the '1 min prior' call nor the 'jumpers away' call. 3 weeks ago an F15 almost took out the pilatus because all ZBW legally has to do is issue traffic and does not have to ensure separation. The F15 took extreme evasive maneuvers to miss the aircraft.

Title: RPTED SIT OF 2 JUMP ACFT ON DIFFERENT ATC FACILITY FREQS AND WITHOUT COM WITH EACH OTHER OPERATING AT HIGH AND LOW ALTS WITH JUMPERS AWAY FROM THE HIGHER ACFT. LACK OF INTERFAC COORD FROM CTR FOR THE 1 MIN TO JUMP TIME AND FOR THE JUMPERS AWAY INFO. LACK OF COM BTWN ACFT. PLT OF LOWER ACFT TOOK ACTION TO AVOID JUMPERS.

Narrative: ACFT #1 WAS RECEIVING ADVISORIES FROM ZBW AT 13500 FT. ACFT #2 WAS RECEIVING ADVISORIES FROM Y90 (BRADLEY APCH) AT 4500 FT. ACFT #1 CALLED 1 MIN PRIOR TO JUMP, ZBW FAILED TO ADVISE Y90 AND ACFT #2 CALLED 1 MIN PRIOR. ACFT #1 AND #2 HAVE NO FREQ TO TALK TO EACH OTHER. ACFT #1 RELEASES JUMPERS RIGHT ON TOP OF ACFT #2. ACFT #2 ADVISES Y90 HE IS MOVING OUT OF THE WAY BECAUSE HE SEES CANOPIES OPENING ABOVE HIM. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SIT. LUCKILY, NOBODY DIED. THE ACFT JUMPING AT THE SAME ARPT SHOULD HAVE A DEDICATED FREQ TO COORDINATE JUMPS. ZBW NEEDS NEW RULES IN REGARDS TO THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO VFR ACFT. THEY NEVER CALLED FOR THE '1 MIN PRIOR' CALL NOR THE 'JUMPERS AWAY' CALL. 3 WKS AGO AN F15 ALMOST TOOK OUT THE PILATUS BECAUSE ALL ZBW LEGALLY HAS TO DO IS ISSUE TFC AND DOES NOT HAVE TO ENSURE SEPARATION. THE F15 TOOK EXTREME EVASIVE MANEUVERS TO MISS THE ACFT.
