Jira supporting change in the Eclipse community
Last week, the Eclipse Foundation has released the results of the Eclipse Community Survey 2011. It’s really interesting to see how the Eclipse community uses Eclipse and other software development tools. As you would expect, open source tools dominate the responses in almost every category except, of course, for one..
Jira for Change Management
It’s awesome to see nearly a quarter of the survey respondents – 24.7% to be exact – use Jira as their primary change management system.
2. Jira must be one of the most successful commercial developer tools
Atlassian Jira continues to grow in popularity with Eclipse users. Jira now has 24.7% adoption in the Eclipse community compared to 16.5% using Bugzilla. Last year Jira and Bugzilla were almost equally used. What I find impressive is that Jira is one of the few commercial developer products that shows up in the survey as being widely used.
Supporting the Open Source community
Atlassian has always been a huge supporter of open source development, providing free open source and community licenses for all of our products.
We’re extremely proud to help such a vibrant and growing community of developers.
