I remember when I was doing a talk in Melbourne, another developer told me what he didn't like about Atlassian was that they essentially only had one product (was it Jira? or Confluence? can't remember) and almost everything else in their offering set; they bought from other people and re-engineered to fit into their product line.

Having administered, Jira, Confluence and Bamboo servers (all with slightly different installation steps, logging and means to connect to LDAP), what he said made sense.

That being side, I really like Confluence. It's an amazing wiki, even though it's a bit expensive (although they do have free open source project licenses) and kinda resource hog.

I wonder if this means I'll be able to unsubscribe to the Atlasssian SMS notifications. They make is so easy to subscribe, but no details how to unsubscribe.

Reply to the SMS message with with "STOP"

I think it would be nice if there were clearer instructions. Plus, I'm hesitant as I don't know if texting 'STOP' to a +1 (US) number from the UK.

I've just looked up the cost, it would be about £0.20 to send it.

I did tweet them about it a while ago, but I din't think it really made sense.

Seems like the perfect acquisition for handling HipChat's downtime.

Ouch. I know snark is generally frowned upon, but HipChat and hosted JIRA/Confluence downtimes have been serious issues for us.

We use hipchat on premise and still have quite a few issues with it going down. It isn't just the hosted version that is meh fwiw.

Jira, although it is slow, works quite well for our on-premise version.

That's okay, I sent the STOP text and looks like it's done the job. Thanks for replying!

Deserved in this case...HipChat went from rock solid and growing feature list to login failures and crashing all the time. On top of that it's losing features like video.
