On: Atlassian acquires Trello for $425M

This saddens me, and I suspect the future Trello will be a much different animal from what it is today. It could be better, but my gut says not.

I'm optimistic in that there may finally be a self-hosted version of Trello.

Whilst not as well produced as Trello, https://kanboard.net/ is self hostable.

If we're going for OS Trello clones, Wekan [1] is another choice.

Yep wekan + sandstorm is a fantastic combo.

Wekan looks pretty usable - thanks. And bonus points for the easily-accessible demo.

Thanks. I'm still waking up.

It has been used extensively in our organization too, and our CTO is now searching replacements after the announcement.

We've have been exposed to JIRA through external suppliers and that has been enough to make him on his edges now.

Personally I don't think much will change, at least in the first year or so until the contracts of the original developers lapse and they can move on to new things.
