Open Source Bridge is in two weeks, and I used their OpenConferenceWare system to select my favorite sessions. Argh! I want to attend three talks in the Wednesday, 5:00pm timeslot. I'll have to attend one, and view the other talks' video afterward. But video's not as good as being there.

World Plone Day, Open Source Bridge, Friends, Bittersweet Chocolate
Yesterday's World Plone Day in Seattle was interesting, and helped me think about a few matters. Fifteen – 20 people were physically present, with another 10 watching via Brian Gershon's ustream.tv wizardry. (It was lower quality than a separate camcorder recording, due to a ustream.tv bug.) After Jon Stahl's introduction, Andrew Burkhalter, David Glick, and … Continue reading World Plone Day, Open Source Bridge, Friends, Bittersweet Chocolate
Open Source Bridge talks
The Open Source Bridge conference has announced the accepted conference speakers. Twelve talks from my list of superficially interesting talk proposals made the cut. The "cooking" track is noticeably larger than the others, but some speakers are not yet confirmed. If you haven't registered yet, get going!
Interesting Open Source Bridge talk proposals
Open Source Bridge's proposal deadline is 12:00 midnight tonight. While I'm not personally interested in all of the proposed talks, they clearly have all had good thought put into them. Here are the ones that have piqued my curiosity: The Scylla and Charybdis of Open Source Legalese Using Open Source Principals to Save the Economy … Continue reading Interesting Open Source Bridge talk proposals
Some Open Source Bridge talks
I continue to be impressed and excited by the Open Source Bridge conference. It's easy, because the conference organizers have been a poster child for how to create a first-class grass-roots conference. I'm doing my small bit to publicize the conference here in Seattle, and did some outreach at PyCon 2009. I'm hoping that John … Continue reading Some Open Source Bridge talks

Seattle Lunch 2.0, Open Source Bridge
Yesterday, I met up with members of Open Source Bridge's brain trust at the Seattle Lunch 2.0 happy hour at Axios/TalentSpring. Lots of people, lots of good chats. Lots of pizza and drink. IANAL but gosh their office is nice. Open Source Bridge was represented by Selena Deckelmann, Rick Turoczy, Jake Kuramoto, and Kelly Guimont. They … Continue reading Seattle Lunch 2.0, Open Source Bridge
OSCON- -, Open Source Bridge++
I was disappointed by OSCON's move to San Jose starting this year. Their official justification was nonsense — basically, O'Reilly expects infinite growth forever, and thinks that bigger is better. As a happy northwestern transplant, I wish O'Reilly lots of luck with infinite growth in this economy. And with San Jose's higher costs of everything, concrete everywhere, … Continue reading OSCON- -, Open Source Bridge++
