Hi everyone, At Atlassian, one of our core values is “Open company, no bullshit.” That means we actively invite discussion, debate, and critique. We want our developer community to challenge proposals, ask hard questions, and surface concerns. It’s how we grow and get better, together. But open do…

@ChrisHemphill1 some people who reply are not native English speakers. People should not misinterpret their directness as aggression or as acting without empathy to the person from Atlassian who is acting as Atlassian’s public representative in these RFCs or messages. Remember also that Atlassian p…

This is a really unfortunate timing for this message. I’ll bite, since I usually remain silent. I have never seen anyone be agressive with Atlassian but Atlassian seems to repeat feeling the “bullying” (to quote). For 10 years in the ecosystem I’ve been trying to be as silent as possible. Because …

@ChrisHemphill1 could Atlassian please elaborate which policies apply to Atlassian staff with regard to Marketplace Partner interactions? This feels very one-directional. [image] ChrisHemphill1: This community only thrives when every voice feels welcome and respected. Building a community r…

Appreciate the comments so far @remie , @aragot and @david - we hear you. Your longevity and dedication to this ecosystem is valued. It was also time to remind everyone of the ground rules for communication and engagement and this goes for Atlassian’s as well.

[image] ChrisHemphill1: Appreciate the comments so far @remie , @aragot and @david - we hear you. Hi @ChrisHemphill1 – To be clear, many people in this forum would welcome a meaningful response to the frustrations expressed above. Whether from you or another Atlassian. “We hear you” is a gre…

Thanks @ChrisHemphill1 for the measured response and working to keep this vital communication channel a constructive experience for Atlassian and Partners. I served 20+ years in the corporate software dev world and understand that with a large org moving quickly some decisions will go sideways. S…

Some random points I notice on communication style and effectiveness: the “no bullshit” core value stems from Atlassian’s Australian roots. like us Aussies, entrepreneurs/founders tend to get straight to the point with no filter. however Atlassian’s internal culture doesn’t appear to embody this a…

I strongly agree that ownership of mistakes (from both sides partners and Atlassian) is an important element for healthy, fair and honest conversations in this community. I’m both an Atlassian MP vendor and a customer using many Atlassian Products. My experience is when reporting bugs, bad UI, Rovo…

Hey Chris and Atlassians, I fully support the requirement to have a space where everyone feels comfortable discussing, commenting, and participating. I will do my best to rethink and reread my posts in this regard before pressing “reply”. From my close to 10 years of experience in the Atlassian ec…

To echo many other responses above, we have a long history with Atlassian both as a customer (since 2008 in our case) and as a partner (since 2015). The Atlassian Developer Community has, in our opinion, always been one of the few places on the internet where you can expect to find polite, intellig…
