Mashup Down Under
August 1st, 2007
Mike “JIRA JIRA JIRA” Cannon-Brookes pinged me on IM tonight to let me know that Atlassian has acquired Cenqua. Cenqua, as you might know, makes the fancy-dandy FishEye product for viewing source repositories. Atlassian is the Australian wiki/bug-tracking giant run by stylish surfers.
Congrats to both groups. I enjoyed having beers with the Cenqua kids at JavaOne this year.

That is seriously cool.
Personally I am very happy with this as an Australian - more power to atlassian ! And Cenqua will surely bring some of the best engineering minds around into Atlassian. It also keep Atlassian as an Aussie company, which is really cool (we have too small a software industry and a massive deficit in software).
