    titleFour new BBF web sites

    There are 4 related web sites.

    1. Confluence wiki (This site)
    2. Bitbucket (Atlassian's variant on Github but with controls we required to manage IPR) code.broadband-forum.org
    3. JIRA (workflow and support). issues.broadband-forum.org
    4. The wiki will work in concert with the new BBF public site and content currently posted on as member pages on ARO with direct links from the public site to the members site. In due course editing of blogs and other content will be editable by members.

    All four sites will have a common login so that once you are logged in to Confluence you will not have to login to information located in members areas of the public site, or BitBucket

    About Confluence and Atlassian: Confluence is the most popular and frequently used Wiki Software with 75,000 + customers. We currently have licenses for 22 software functions and add-ons. there are literally hundreds of additional applications that are supported - mostly at a small additional cost. We will add balloting in due course

    About the new public web site: This is based on Joomla, the popular open source Content Management System used by many large organizations and gives the kind of sophistacted access and functionality not available in Wordpress.
