Now that we've got the 2011 product release out (and no crisis on the forums yet), it's time to get out and check in with customers and continue our planning of a very XBR future. One of the next steps is to head to Europe and join the crazy crowd at EUE2010 on the 3rd and 4th of June in Utrecht, the Netherlands for some bonding.

Either Shane or I will be headed over to do some validation of our future roadmap in a closed NDA session, but we also hope have some time to bring everyone up-to-date on where things stand with XBR in a public session. So if you want to be the first on your block with XBR insights, make sure you head over to EUE2010.

For those of you who don’t know what this End User Event is all about : It is a real, no-nonsense get-together for professionals in the field of 3D visualization, Games and VFX. Two days packed with workshops and master classes with national and international expert speakers divided over five conference inside a pub called Florin in Utrecht, The Netherlands,. Go to www.enduserevent.com to get more information about the event, program and registration. Our friends at 3DStudio.nl will contact you if you express interest in the NDA-only session or to schedule some 1 on 1's (time permitting).

I was there last year and loved every minute of it, so I hope to be the one to go, but I might have to give Shane a chance to get to know you all this time. We're going to arm-wrestle soon to decide.
