I bought copies of Jira and Confluence and I'm excited about learning about these products. Atlassian is a company I have admired ever since I met some of the folks in person at a Java Posse Roundup. It takes time to learn complex, robust software like JIra and Confluence so please, let's help eachother out by sharing here in Codetown what we discover. How many of us have gotten the software so far? Have you started using it yet?
Happy 10th year, JCertif!

Europe is completely dependent on US cloud services, Martin Kleppmann told QCon London. His fix: commoditise everything. He walked through three technologies he's helped build: multi-cloud via de facto standards, Bluesky's AT Protocol for social media, and local-first software for collaboration, all designed to make switching providers trivial and shift power back to users.
