>- see footer for list info -< Well you have to remember there have already been 2 conferences this year, and there are others happening around the same time, such as dConstruct, flash on the beach and Adobe Max in December, so there is a lot of competition and not much in peoples budgets. In fact I wasn't even going to even try this year for those every reasons as I thought it would be a pointless exercise, but I got pushed into it :-)

I assume that CFDevcon is totally independant but it doesn't look good that a premier event such as this is being cancelled. Personally I welcome the 'tracked' scenario there's always something initeresting to learn and the line up for this event looked great. I am suprised it has been so poorly supported. I should poin tout im not trying to slag anyone off here I know a lot of hard work goes into these things and I wish all the success for trying to get this going next year.
