If you're not feelin' it yet, this is the perfect time to check out Bamboo 4.4 - filled to the brim with customer-reported fixes and enhancements. It's our way of showing that we care.

Moving at the Speed of Dev – FishEye & Crucible 2.10 Now Available!

The fact that you're reading this is highly suspicious. Wouldn't you rather be coding right now? Are you really a developer, or are you some alien life form in an over-worn "There's no place like 127.0.0.1" t-shirt masquerading as a coder?
