# [OS Bridge Call For Papers Extended](https://johnpoelstra.com/os-bridge-call-for-papers-extended/)

Not only has the call for papers been extended, so has the early bird rate of $175 (approximately $1,000 less than [OSCON](https://en.oreilly.com/oscon2009/public/register)
).

Here is a [fun graph](http://opensourcebridge.org/events/2009/proposals/stats)
 we can all relate to that shows paper submissions over time with the expected spike right at the deadline–now extended until April 10, 2009.

Looking at the [full list of proposals](http://opensourcebridge.org/events/2009/proposals/)
 it doesn’t appear that the organizers extended the deadline because of a shortage of proposals either. Still, the more proposals the better so get yours in now!
