# Open Source Bridge Town Hall this Tuesday: Where we’ve been, where we go from here

[![Open Source Bridge](https://i0.wp.com/siliconflorist.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/opensourcebridge.jpg?w=925)](http://opensourcebridge.org "Open Source Bridge")I was originally going to title this post “Open Source Bridge: [We’ve only just begun](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__VQX2Xn7tI "We've only just begun")” but I didn’t want you to get that song stuck in your head.

What’s that? Oh. Oopie.

Anyway, the fine folks of [Open Source Bridge](http://opensourcebridge.org)—the 100% volunteer run open source conference being held in Portland, Oregon, June 17-19—would like to do two things: 1) Bring you up-to-speed on all of the progress they’ve made and 2) Outline the programs, plans, and volunteer opportunities for the next few months.

To make it as interactive as possible, they’re inviting all interested folks to [meet tomorrow (Tuesday) night at 7 PM at CubeSpace for a Town Hall discussion](http://opensourcebridge.org/2009/04/next-town-hall-meeting-is-april-21-2009/):

> One of the challenges we’ve recognized in organizing this completely volunteer run conference is that sometimes it is hard to consistently and effectively utilize all of the willing people who have volunteered to help. We are hoping this town hall meeting will make some of this easier with the opportunity to interact face to face.

If you’re interested in volunteering, we hope to see you there. Even if you don’t want to lift a finger for Open Source Bridge, we’d still love to see you there. Or if you’re unable to make it—or simply immune to our charms—please [check out the volunteer page](http://opensourcebridge.org/get-involved/) or [join the discussion groups](http://opensourcebridge.org/volunteer/mailing-lists/ "Open Source Bridge discussion groups").

For more information, visit the [Open Source Bridge Town Hall on Calagator](http://calagator.org/events/1250456989). To RSVP, [visit Upcoming](http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/2413281/).
