Narrative:
During taxi to takeoff runway, went about 25-30 ft beyond hold point B. Bos ground called to stop. We had previously discussed hold point during before pushback brief. Taxi sequence was changed twice to follow different aircraft coming from gates. Last instruction was to 'follow aircraft ahead' -- I interpreted this to follow him when he crossed B hold point.
