Here comes AtlasCamp 2010!

If you develop or maintain Atlassian products (JIRA, Confluence, etc), this event is a great place to be (October 11th - 13th, California, $200).

I'm looking forward to it again with a relish I rarely find for many group events.

Should you go to AtlasCamp? Hint: yes!

This post is a friendly sales job for AtlasCamp, the Atlassian developers get-together that's happening October 21-23 in Half Moon Bay, California.

Cons

- Costs a bit of money this year ($200 instead of free)
- er ...
- that's it!

Pros

+ If your company depends on JIRA or Confluence and you've changed them somehow, this is the best place I've found for technical questions
+ Friendly people who write useful code at this conference, not just vapid schmoozing
+ Good presentations about what's changing in the products you depend on
+ Plenty of opportunities to tell the core Atlassian developers and top management exactly what you think of their products

See you there.

AtlasCamp 2009

AtlasCamp is back, and it's moved to Half Moon Bay. It also costs something this year, but after the great time I had last year I'm looking forward to it.

JIRA Customization Guidelines

These are a few slides written at AtlasCamp today. The slides contain some general guidelines for customizing JIRA.
