    They're two completely different codebases... even if they are 100% feature parity, it's 100% different code. They should absolutely be separate from each other, with different iss…

    So then if the government buys pens and reams of paper, then it's the government subsidizing office supply stores? But it's not a subsidy if a corporation spends money on the same …

    A contract isn't a subsidy... A subsidy would be giving them dollars without any particular strings attached except perhaps to use those funds to develop the product. If the contra…

    BookStack is great if you're small. There's no file locking/conduct management when two people are editing the same page and there's no co-authoring. I used it for docs at a startu…

    Your product looks super cool! I'd been looking at improving incident management in my org, but SSO being locked behind enterprise service levels makes it a non-starter for me. Jus…
