Early access program for a new Team field in Jira Software
In this early access program, you'll get access to the new Teams field in Jira which will enable you to:
- Create and manage teams in Jira and then Associate Jira issues with these Teams.
- Because it's a Jira field you'll also be able to search and filter issues by Teams and create reports for issues by Team.
- And last you'll be able to view the issues associated with a team on the team profile.
If you're interested in the new Teams field you can sign up for an early access program using the form in this community post.
Marketplace Revenue Share Updates
An update to Marketplace's revenue share doesn't change much. There is no change in revenue share for cloud apps and in fact, there are only two changes:
- Server share, which was cut to 70% a while back, goes back to 75% to aid vendors in investing the extra revenue in evolving their cloud offering.
- Forge apps for the 95% share offered to partners in the first year of the app. This means that if you're in the middle of building a Connect app once you launch you'll get the regular 85% like existing apps.
[Recap] Team Office Hours: AMA on the 4-day workweek
In the previous Monday coffee's we mentioned upcoming Team Office Hours about the 4-day workweek. But don't worry if you missed it, there is a recording of the session where you can listen to Atlassian's team experience during the 4-day workweek experiment they run over the summer. The feelings were mixed but in general positive, if you're looking to switch to a 4-day workweek or experiment with a different working hours then this is worth watching.
