DataPortability Sponsors Open Source Bridge (Discount Code!)

[Brady Brim-DeForest]

The DataPortability Project is a proud sponsor of the first annual Open Source Bridge Conference in Portland, Oreogn. The conference takes place this week, June 17-19, 2009 at the Oregon Convention Center.


What is Open Source Bridge?
Open Source Bridge is a new conference for developers working with open source technologies and for people interested in learning the open source way. It’s not a typical technical conference. Here’s what makes it different:

• It’s entirely volunteer-run, by developers, for developers. This is the conference you’ve always wanted to attend.
• Session tracks are technology agnostic, based instead around shared community experiences and focused on similarities between projects, not differences.
• The geekery doesn’t end when the sessions do. There will also be a 24-hour hacker lounge for code sprints, bug bashes, session deep dives, bouncing ideas, starting new projects or just mingling and taking in the vibe.

Take a peek at the tracks and sessions here: http://opensourcebridge.org/events/2009/sessions
