Not sure about any looks from Google to Atlassian...but I do see after they acquired Jot...they killed the enterprise version...and that just leaves a number of companies no doubt scrambling for a platform. Already Atlassian has a migration offer to Confluence. No doubt there will be others as well.

Mark,

I no longer work at Jot (I’m now at SitePen), but I second your congrats to the entire Jot team. They’ve done a great job, and it’ll be awesome to see their “application platform cleverly disguised as a wiki” wind up in the hands of even more of the people who can benefit from it.

Regards

wow, Congrats to Alex Russell and the rest of the JotSpot team… that’s awesome. Through the Ajaxian podcasts, it was easy to get a heads-up on what Jot Spot was through Alex Russell, and what its general target was for the future. Cool vision, and thanks Ajaxians for the great updates keeping all in the community up to speed.

any ideas as to what this will mean for Dojo? Support from Google maybe?

While I love JIRA, I would think that this makes any Atlassian moves much less likely. Google Code already overlaps with JIRA quite a bit, and Jotspot overlaps even more with Confluence.

So does this mean that JotSpot will be FREE?

I had a 14-Day JotSpot account and I really liked it but there was now way I was going to shell out cash to use it.
