The first development build of 1.2 version of the Community Bubbles Plugin is now available!

In a recent blog post, our CEO mentioned that we were looking at dropping support for Confluence releases prior to 2.10 to allow us to use some new functionality for the next Bubbles release. This won't be happening with the 1.2 release of Bubbles. We will still support Confluence versions from 2.8+ (2.8.2+ actually). However for the release following 1.2 there are some features we would like to implement that would be much easier to do with some of the new plugin points introduced in 2.10 so we would encourage Bubbles users to think about upgrading in the near future.

Recently Peter Reiser from Sun gave a Voice of the Customer webinar for Atlassian.

This presentation will be of interest to users of the Bubbles plugin as Bubbles is used extensively in the customisations for Sun Space. The demonstration of the Sun Space functionality is a great example of what can be done by building on top of Confluence.
