Roadmap

The initial release will only contain support for email notifications. In the next iteration there will be support for multiple backends available. There are some use cases where you would want to store the details of the exception + the context in a database or somewhere else. So a configurable backend is something that would make a fine addition to the plugin.

Once this has been realized, I will rip out the History module and create a new node-metrics module from it, so it will be completely customizable and reusable with only the metrics that you think are important. If you have application that does allot database queries, it might be useful to know see if the queries per second where increasing, or that it took to long for your database server to respond. The possibilities are endless.
