A New Milestone — 10,000 Customers and Counting!

Atlassian now has over 10,000 customers! Not only is this a pretty cool milestone to pass, but it happened on February 16th, almost to the day of Atlassian's sixth birthday. We've come a long way over the past six years, from a couple of developers furiously developing JIRA on their own, to now offering a suite of development tools and having a staff of over 150 employees dedicated to producing some kick-ass software, all while holding onto the values that have made Atlassian what it is. And with

Communicating Across Products and Oceans

Dipping into the Stream You may already know about the Activity Stream feature that will be part of JIRA Studio. The idea is that all of the activity on a project, across its issues, wiki content, source commits and code reviews, can be viewed in a continuous, integrated timeline.

Pop-up window that remembers its own position – part 2 – Opera

This is a continuation to my previous post where I claimed that IE is broken. Well, it seems that it is not the only one. Opera has problems of its own kind. When it comes to positioning pop-up windows, there is a difference between the x and y you set and you get as well. Moving a pop-up window moves its top left corner relatively to the top left corner of its parent window. Unlike in other browsers, where a new pop-up window is treated as equal to its parent, Opera opens a pop-up window as a new
