We're looking for feedback right now on the 2011 conference, with the big question being; "Where?".
If you can take 10 minutes to fill out the survey that would be awesome:

Intergral are well know for their fantastic FusionDebug and FusionReactor products, and for some time now they've been teasing us with the promise of a new addition to the Fusion product family; FusionAnalytics.
FusionAnalytics allows us to interpret and analyze log information, pulling data together into an organised and consolidated time series, giving us a unique perspective into what our applications are doing. No longer will we have to manually trawl through files trying to figure out what's went wrong, why things are slow, or to help us identify hot spots and trends and to plan capacity based on what is reported.
Here's a few snapshots showing the FusionAnalytics in action.
FusionAnalytics has reaped a huge amount of praise already, and that's even before it's been released in Alpha. Ray Camden even blogged that FusionAnalytics was the coolest thing at CFUnited 2008.
Well, here we are in 2009, and at Scotch on the Road: London, we're going to have Intergral's David Stockton not just talk about the product, but also demo the product.
The Fusion products are the essentials tools for all CFML development and monitoring, and Analytics is going to take things forward in such a way that it will blow your mind.
We're considering a stop in Manchester as part of the Scotch on the Road tour and we're trying to gauge interest.
If Manchester would be a good location for you, let us know by leaving a comment. Ideally we need 50 people.
