Public Whiteboards are now EDITABLE!

Hi Atlassian Community! 

I'm Shivani Gakkani, a Product Manager on the Confluence Cloud team! 

We've previously only supported viewable public whiteboards, where public visitors can view content / changes made by internal logged-in users - but public visitors could never actively collaborate. 

Now, we are thrilled to announce that public whiteboards are not just viewable by visitors anymore... they are now also EDITABLE! This is a huge step when it comes to lowering the barrier to enable easy, real-time collaboration. 

Note: Public whiteboards are only accessible to Premium & Enterprise customers.

It's wild to me that you would give public visitors the ability to edit as an effort to "lower the barrier to enable easy, real-time collaboration" before you would do so for your own paying customers. 

Outrageous!

Thanks for the update @Shivani Gakkani . I am here to learn more about the capabilities of Whiteboards.  This seems like a logical feature to support.
