Hi All,<div><br></div><div>I wanted to put a plug in for this conference in Portland. It's called Open Source Bridge and it is a great place to troll for developers. I went last year and gave a presentation on what is going on with libraries and Koha and Evergreen hoping to generate some interest. Now it is your turn to go there, meet some of these folks, and get them on your payroll. </div>
<div><br></div><div>And an extra bonus is that this conference is put on by a group of women developers which, as you may already know, are not all that common. </div><div><br></div><div>Lori<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Open Source Bridge will be held June 21-24, 2011 at the Eliot<br>
Center in Downtown Portland, Oregon. We are planning for our best<br>
event yet and your participation will help make that happen.<br>
<br>
New this year, we have multiple early-bird pricing tiers. Through<br>
the end of 2010, we are offering a limited number of tickets<br>
at $175 (that's a savings of $125 off the regular ticket price).<br>
This is a unique opportunity to lock in your admission to<br>
Open Source Bridge and give some early support to the event.<br>
<br>
In addition to this early bird pricing tier, we offer the<br>
following:<br>
<br>
# 100 tickets at $195, until the end of February.<br>
# Unlimited early bird tickets at $225 until April 15th.<br>
# Unlimited full price tickets at $300.<br>
# As always, we offer a student rate of $99, available anytime.<br>
<br>
All pricing tiers are currently open, and if you order before<br>
the end of 2010, we will include a complimentary<br>
Open Source Bridge scarf!<br>
<br>

mid-January and will send another announcement then.<br>
