Sales, we have a problem…Confluence is the solution
This is the first part of a four part series focusing on the evolution of the Evaluator Resources space, built on our enterprise wiki, Confluence. What started as a channel to deliver information to Confluence webinar attendees in an efficient and timely manner, has quickly evolved into an extensive knowledge base for helping prospective customers evaluate all of our products. The goal of the space is to provide rich, useful information and resources to evaluators via a medium that is easy to maintain and quick to update. What better medium than a wiki!

Universal Wiki Converter – Now with SSL Support
We recently released version 3.3.0 of the Universal Wiki Converter (full release notes), a content migration platform that helps users get their content into Confluence.
Along with the miscellaneous bug fixes and minor improvements, there are two new features that I’m excited we can support now. First, we now have a Trac Converter module, compliments of Stefan Gybas. I had another Trac user who was willing to figure out how to build the UWC himself so he could get access to it early 2 weeks ago, so I’m pleased it’s finally public. Secondly, the long-awaited SSL Support feature is finally available.
