Nov 21, 2022
Good morning community!
I really hope you're enjoying some sunshine...not like here in Brighton today ☔️
Last week was really busy when it comes to new announcements in the Atlassian community - from the Jira Product Discovery pricing model to the new Compass home page.
The New Compass home page is a single place where you can learn and get updates about software architecture, teams, and compass components. A new Home page will help you answer questions like "did my team ship the latest feature on time?" "Are there any incidents that might affect me?" and so on.
You might have already seen some of the improvements in Open DevOps in your Jira and this community post is a great summary of them - Create a branch button in your Jira issues, a Code tab in your Jira project where you can find a PR activity feed and the status of your PR at a glance on the kanban board.
Jira Product Discovery is getting its own pricing model. In this post, you can find thoughts on the upcoming pricing and how it could look like. There will be 2 plans available - Free and Standard (10$ per user/creator)

This one is for Atlassian Administrators out there dealing with installing and managing Apps from the Marketplace. Atlassian is looking for feedback on security and trust requirements in your organization for apps you use.
