Changes to Atlassian products

[Justin Obara]

Hi Gio,

Thanks for the update. I remember looking at their cloud offerings pre-pandemic. It seemed like they still offered free cloud options for open source projects. However, the plugins weren’t free anymore. Is that still the case and do we actually need the plugins we’re currently using if we migrate to the cloud? Also do you have a gauge on how else this might affect us? For example will existing links to the wiki and JIRA break once we move to the cloud?

Thanks
Justin
