Good idea and I would absolutely be interested in attending a conference. I have also thought about suggesting we do web events for interested developers. It could be kind of webinars with different themes and useful things covered, discussed.
Regarding polls etc., I have created discussion and poll functionality in the DevNet (developer network system) and we could possible move/continue these polls in the DevNet system when it´s done. I am almost ready with the first, initial version of the system/site and will present it in the coming weeks.
