We're in San Francisco this week at the Atlassian Summit lunching Mini Confluence Enterprise Edition -- a way to access Confluence on your iPhone, Blackberry, Palm or Android.

At last year's summit, we released Mini Confluence Personal Edition, an iPhone app that individual users can purchase from the app store and run based on Confluence's XML-RPC.

The new version is a custom plugin installed on the server. For people using an iPhone, they still download an app from the app store, but with the Enterprise Edition, it's free. For people with other mobile devices, they get to Mini Confluence through a web client.

This year's version is two times as fast as the original (!), and has some cool new features like filtering on the dashboard based on your favorites, status updates, landscape mode, and multiple user accounts. Find out more about Mini Confluence at www.miniconfluence.com.

We've been talking to lots of the conference attendees the past couple of days. Some of them have already been using the personal edition, and have given us feedback on that. Other people have ideas for MCEE, like an iPad version, support for Confluence instances protected by VPN, and even "make Mini Jira!"

I'm surprised by how many people here are on Android. It's still mostly iPhones, but a lot less Blackberry users than last year.

A lot of people have been signing up for the beta program -- we're sending out copies of the plugin for free to anyone who's interested and letting them try it out for three months. I'm anxious to hear the feedback so we can improve it before people start paying for it.

If you try it out, let us know what you think!

And now... I think it's time for some Ghirardelli Chocolate :-)
