Changes to Atlassian products

Hi Justin,

I looked for the plugins in the marketplace but I was only able to install the following:

[cid:5e432dbf-49eb-4087-8970-42bbf7bf170b]

We'll probably have to re-apply to get open-source licenses for them since they're paid.

Additionally, I couldn't find a way to transfer our existing licenses over to the cloud installation. It seems each plugin installed gets a new license number that can't be changed.

I think it's very likely we'll face some disruption in functionality.

I was re-reading the FAQ<https://www.atlassian.com/migration/faqs> about this change in Atlassian's policy and it says the following:

Server customers will have access to maintenance and support for an additional three years, ending February 2, 2024 PT

So, I'm thinking that if they will provide maintenance and security updates until 2024.... we don't really need to make this migration right now.

My initial reading of the situation was that they would halt all development in February 2021 but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Hi Gio,

Thanks for working on this. It’ll help us get used to the new URLs and etc. I think the timing is fine, but you should probably warn the AIHEC group. Not sure, how to get a hold of them though, maybe through Jutta?

Will we be losing any functionality, e.g. plugins that aren’t supported anymore?

Thanks
Justin
