> Following [WikiSym2005](http://recentchangescamp.org/WikiSym2005?ref=chrismessina.me) we agreed to convene a wiki [BarCamp](http://recentchangescamp.org/BarCamp?ref=chrismessina.me) in Portland Oregon in early 2006 to provide yet another great space for the community to gather for work and play! We're using [OpenSpaceTechnology](http://recentchangescamp.org/OpenSpaceTechnology?ref=chrismessina.me) to create an event that is as open and accessible as possible. We chose the first part of 2006 in order to complement [Wikimania2006](http://recentchangescamp.org/Wikimania2006?ref=chrismessina.me) (middle of 2006) and [WikiSym2006](http://recentchangescamp.org/WikiSym2006?ref=chrismessina.me) (end of 2006).

Apparently being organized by [Brandon CS Sanders](http://brandon-cs-sanders.com/?ref=chrismessina.me) and with help from [Eugene Eric Kim](http://www.eekim.com/blog?ref=chrismessina.me), I'm sure this will be a very well organized camp. That and [Ward Cunningham](http://c2.com/~ward?ref=chrismessina.me), the father of wikis (and [my good buddy](http://flickr.com/photos/ldandersen/50135702/?ref=chrismessina.me)), will be there. Sounds like this will be a stellar event.

Hi Chris, I'm just one of the many who have been chipping in and adding value to RecentChangesCamp. I'm hoping to see your name on the list of "planning to attend" in the quite soon! We've got lots to chat about :) Cheers, Brandon
