Thank you all for your patience as we worked to come up with a schedule that will hopefully suit everybody. We’re still sorting out a few remaining details and expecting some additions to the schedule over the next few days, but as the bulk of the schedule is in place, we wanted to let you all know when each session will be so that you can start to plan your time at Open Source Bridge.

It’s only four short weeks until Open Source Bridge is here, and we hope you’re as excited as we are. We look forward to seeing all of you in June!

We received hundreds of excellent presentation proposals, community comments, and other feedback, and our diverse selection committee was very busy carefully reviewing and choosing talks.

This year’s lineup features knowledgeable speakers covering a broad range of open source topics. So, if you’ve been holding off on registering, now is a great time to do so!

We’re still waiting to hear back from a few speakers, so stay tuned in the next few days as we fill in a few gaps – but the bulk of our speakers have responded to acceptances, and we’re happy to share what we have with you today!

We’re still finalizing the session schedule for Open Source Bridge, and plan to announce that in the very near future as well.

While that process continues, we want to gather input from all the members of our community as well.

Is there a session proposal you’re excited to attend? Or a speaker you want to collaborate with in the Hacker Lounge (more details about the Hacker Lounge here)? Be sure to take a minute to leave comments on the proposals you’d like to see at this year’s Open Source Bridge conference, and tell your coworkers, friends, and fellow user group members to comment too.

There are two ways to tell our selection committee what proposals you’re interested in: 1) by marking the ones you like as favorites (using the little stars), and 2) by leaving comments on them (using the form at the end of each proposal).

The list of favorites is publicly visible on your user profile page, so you can share the list of talks you’re excited about with others. The comments are private and only visible to the selection team; this is the place to tell us why the presentation’s topic is important, how well qualified the speaker is, and so on.

Commenting on proposals and marking your favorites is very valuable feedback for us, and allows you to further help set the direction of Open Source Bridge.

You can get started now: http://opensourcebridge.org/events/2011/proposals

First, we had a ton of proposal pour into our proposal system. Then we got a ton of comments about which speakers should be selected. Finally, we’ve had continued feedback on the strength of the selected talks.

We couldn’t be happier. But there was only one problem: we didn’t know who was going to talk when.

But now, we do. Introducing the Open Source Bridge schedule.

The schedule will provide—at a glance—the time, title, track (including a color key for all the respective tracks), and room of each scheduled talk. Need more details? No problem. Simply roll over a particular talk and you’ll get the additional details you need, including an excerpt and scheduled speakers—as well as the ability to drill deeper into information on the talk, the speaker, the track, and the room.

So have it! Tell your friends! But most importantly start filling your calendar with Open Source Bridge goodness!

Please bear in mind that there are still some outstanding “accepted but not yet confirmed” speakers, so this list will likely change. For the latest and greatest list of confirmed talks, see the Open Source Bridge sessions.

If you were among those accepted, congratulations! Please share your achievement far and wide. If your talk didn’t happen to make the cut, don’t fret. You could still propose your talk for the unconference sessions on Friday or gather some folks in the 24-hour hacker lounge for a chat.

We can’t wait to see these sessions in June. If you feel the same way, please register today.
