I work for Atlassian as the Confluence architect. I've been a Java developer since about 1997 and have the deep emotional scars to prove it. I won't admit to which language I programmed in before that, but it starts with a P and is mostly illegible.

My email address is charles@atlassian.com

I have a weblog called The Fishbowl.

Quote of the Week/Month/Year

Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good any more... I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little or make a poem which children will speak for you when you're dead. – Tom Stoppard, The Real Thing

    Hi Charles,

    How can I get to know other Atlassian employees' private pages? I found yours purely by accident, but I'm interested to see the others.

    Is this people listing one of the features for the new version of Conf?

      Sounds like Michael Szklanowski has a crushski on Atlassian developers (smile)

        Well Charles does have a quote about wanting groupies after all! (wink)

        I think everyone loves Charles 'cause he has such shiny hair.

        Well that's my reason anyway.

    I don't have a "crushski" but dang it's nice to be able to find out there are people who work for Atlassian. And as of this moment, he has me for a fan. (FWIW)

    Hey Charles,  I saw an older post regarding retiring of wiki spaces.  Has any work been done with this idea?  I would love to be able to remove sites or move them off to an archive location of some kind.
